In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, mix the egg and coconut milk until well blended.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until you get a smooth batter.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the cilantro. Add them to the batter along with the chili flakes and mix well.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil.
Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet to form a bread circle. Use the back of a spoon to spread it evenly.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown.
Flip the naan and cook for another 2 minutes until the other side is golden brown.
Remove from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the skillet if necessary.
Serve warm, garnished with extra cilantro and a pinch of chili flakes if desired.
