Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Coconut flour
• 0.25 cup Arrowroot powder
• 1 tablespoon Black sesame seeds
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Water
• 0 as needed Oil for frying (coconut oil recommended)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and arrowroot powder.

Step 2

Add black sesame seeds, cumin seeds, and salt to the flour mixture and mix well.

Step 3

In a small pan, melt 2 tablespoons of coconut oil over low heat, then add it to the dry ingredients. Mix well until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Step 4

Gradually add water, starting with a quarter cup, and knead the dough. Add more water little by little until you form a soft, pliable dough. Do not add too much water at once.

Step 5

Divide the dough into small lemon-sized balls.

Step 6

Using your palms, roll each ball into a thin rope approximately 4-5 inches long. Carefully shape each rope into a small ring and press the ends to seal.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining dough to make all the rings.

Step 8

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat for frying. To check if the oil is ready, drop a small piece of dough into the oil. If it rises to the surface quickly and steadily without browning, the oil is ready.

Step 9

Gently slide a few murukku rings into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 10

Fry the murukku rings until they are golden brown on both sides, turning occasionally for even cooking. This should take about 3-4 minutes per batch.

Step 11

Remove the fried murukkus using a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.

Step 12

Allow the murukku to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. Enjoy this crunchy Paleo-friendly snack!
