Ingredients

• 2 cups Ragi (finger millet) flour
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 cups Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ragi flour, almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 2

Gradually add the warm water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or your hands until a soft dough forms. You may not need all the water, so add it slowly.

Step 3

Once the mixture begins to come together, add the coconut oil. Knead the dough gently to ensure the oil is well incorporated and the dough is smooth and slightly sticky.

Step 4

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.

Step 5

Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball between two sheets of parchment paper to form a round disc about 6 inches in diameter and approximately 1/8 inch thick.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat.

Step 7

Place a rolled ragi roti on the heated skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until bubbles start to form on the surface.

Step 8

Flip the roti and cook for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are cooked through and slightly golden.

Step 9

Repeat the cooking process with the remaining dough balls.

Step 10

Serve warm Paleo Ragi Rotis with your choice of Paleo-friendly curries or vegetables.
