Ingredients

1 cup almond flour
1 tbsp psyllium husk powder (for binding & texture)
½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
1 tbsp olive oil or ghee (clarified butter)
¼–⅓ cup warm water (adjust as needed)
Optional: pinch of baking powder (for fluffier chapati)

Instructions

Prepare Dough → In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk, salt, and baking powder (if using). Add olive oil/ghee and mix. Slowly add warm water, kneading until a soft dough forms (not sticky).
Rest Dough → Cover and let rest 5–10 minutes to let psyllium absorb moisture.
Shape Chapatis → Divide dough into 6 small balls. Dust rolling surface with almond/coconut flour. Roll each ball into a thin circle (6–8 inches). Use parchment paper for easier rolling.
Cook → Heat a non-stick pan/tawa over medium heat. Place chapati on hot surface, cook 1–2 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook the other side 1–2 minutes. Press lightly for even cooking.
Finish & Serve → Optionally brush with ghee for flavor. Serve warm with keto curry, raita, or as a wrap.
