Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Ghee (for frying)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2
Add Greek yogurt and warm water to the dry ingredients. Mix well using a spatula until the dough begins to form.
Step 3
Add olive oil and knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and pliable. If the dough is sticky, you can lightly dust with additional almond flour.
Step 4
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball. Cover the balls with a damp cloth and let them rest for 10 minutes.
Step 5
On a lightly dusted surface with almond flour, roll each dough ball into a circle with about 5-inch diameter, ensuring they're evenly thick.
Step 6
Heat ghee in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. To test if the oil is ready, drop a small piece of dough into the oil; it should sizzle and rise to the top.
Step 7
Gently slide one rolled bhatura into the hot oil. Fry until it puffs up and turns golden brown on one side. Flip and cook the other side till golden too.
Step 8
Remove the bhatura with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Step 9
Serve hot with your favorite low-carb curry or chickpeas.
