Ingredients

  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 1 cup Tapioca flour
  • 1 cup Coconut milk (full-fat, canned)
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tablespoon Avocado oil (or compliant cooking oil)
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca flour, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and coconut milk until smooth and fully combined.

Step 3

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue mixing until you have a smooth, batter-like consistency.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the avocado oil and swirl to coat the surface evenly.

Step 5

Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet to form a small circle (about 5-6 inches in diameter). Spread gently with the back of a spoon if needed to shape the naan.

Step 6

Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges start to lift. Carefully flip the naan and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until both sides are golden brown.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked naan to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more avocado oil to the skillet as necessary.

Step 8

Serve warm with your favorite Whole30-approved curry, soup, or dip. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
