In a large mixing bowl, combine coconut flour, arrowroot powder, tapioca flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until fully incorporated.
Add the full-fat coconut milk, avocado oil, and lemon juice to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions, shaping them into balls.
Roll each ball between two sheets of parchment paper to form discs about 5 inches in diameter. Make sure the discs are of even thickness.
In a deep frying pan, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place one disc into the hot oil. Fry the bhatura until it puffs up and becomes golden brown on both sides, approximately 1-2 minutes per side.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the bhatura from the oil and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Repeat the frying process with the remaining discs.
Serve the Paleo Bhatura hot with your favorite Paleo-friendly curry or stew.
