In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and sea salt until well combined.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and mix it with the full-fat coconut milk.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth, thick batter forms. Allow the batter to rest for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat and add 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil or avocado oil.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the heated skillet and gently spread it into a circular shape, about 6 inches in diameter, using the back of a spoon.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to lift slightly. Carefully flip the naan and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm alongside your favorite Paleo dishes, such as curry or roasted vegetables. Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently in a skillet or toaster oven before serving.
