πŸ«“ Keto Almond Flour Naan – Low Carb Indian Flatbread

Soft, flexible, and slightly crispy at the edges, this keto naan is made without wheat flour or yeast – yet it mimics traditional Indian flatbread beautifully. It pairs perfectly with curries like Butter Chicken or Saag Paneer, and it’s ready in just 15 minutes!


βœ… Ingredients (Makes 4 naans):

  • 1 cup almond flour (about 100 g)
  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk (for elasticity)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 egg (beaten)
  • 2 tablespoons full-fat Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1/4 cup hot water (about 60 ml – add gradually)

Optional for extra flavor:

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or fresh minced garlic
  • Ghee or butter (for cooking and brushing)

πŸ₯£ Instructions:

  1. Mix the dry ingredients – almond flour, psyllium husk, salt, baking powder, and garlic (if using).
  2. Add the egg and yogurt. Mix until a dough begins to form.
  3. Gradually add hot water while mixing until the dough is soft but not sticky. Let it rest for 2–3 minutes to allow the psyllium to absorb moisture.
  4. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each into a ball, then flatten and roll between two sheets of baking paper to about 0.5 cm thick.
  5. Cook on a dry skillet or lightly greased with ghee, about 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly puffed.
  6. (Optional) Brush with melted garlic butter and top with fresh herbs like coriander or parsley.

🍽️ Serving Ideas:

  • With curries like Butter Chicken or Saag Paneer
  • With keto dips, hummus, or tzatziki
  • As a wrap or base for mini low carb pizzas
