Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Tapioca flour
- 1 cup Coconut milk (full-fat, canned)
- 1 Egg
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil (or compliant cooking oil)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca flour, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and coconut milk until smooth and fully combined.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue mixing until you have a smooth, batter-like consistency.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the avocado oil and swirl to coat the surface evenly.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet to form a small circle (about 5-6 inches in diameter). Spread gently with the back of a spoon if needed to shape the naan.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges start to lift. Carefully flip the naan and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until both sides are golden brown.
Transfer the cooked naan to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more avocado oil to the skillet as necessary.
Serve warm with your favorite Whole30-approved curry, soup, or dip. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
