Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour (atta)
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened)
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Ghee (clarified butter) or oil
• 1 tablespoon Flaxseed meal (optional, for additional fiber)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, almond flour, salt, and flaxseed meal (if using). Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 2

Add plain Greek yogurt to the dry mixture. Using your hands or a spoon, start combining the ingredients.

Step 3

Slowly add water, one tablespoon at a time, while kneading the mixture. The dough should come together into a soft but non-sticky ball. Adjust water quantity as needed.

Step 4

Once the dough is well-kneaded, cover the bowl with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.

Step 6

Lightly flour a clean surface and a rolling pin. Take one dough ball and roll it out into a thin, circular disc approximately 6-7 inches in diameter.

Step 7

Heat a skillet or tawa over medium heat. Once hot, place the rolled-out paratha onto the skillet.

Step 8

Cook the paratha for 1-2 minutes on one side or until you see bubbles and light brown spots. Flip it over using tongs or a spatula.

Step 9

Spread a small amount of ghee or oil (about 1/2 teaspoon) over the surface, then flip again and apply ghee/oil to the other side. Cook each side for another minute or until golden and evenly cooked.

Step 10

Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.

Step 11

Serve the Low Carb Whole Wheat Parathas warm with yogurt, pickle, or your choice of side dish.
