Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup coconut flour (75g)
  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt generous
  • 1 tablespoon nigella seeds and/or sesame seeds
  • 1 cup hot water (240ml)
  • 1/2 cup full-fat natural yogurt (60g)
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil, butter, or olive oil for cooking
  • 1 handful chopped parsley or coriander/cilantro
  • 1 pinch salt generous

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Rolling Pin
  • Skillet or Griddle
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, xanthan gum, baking powder, and a generous pinch of salt. Mix these dry ingredients well.
  2. Pour the hot water into the dry mixture, followed by the yogurt and melted coconut oil or olive oil. Stir until a dough begins to form.
  3. Once the ingredients are well combined, knead the dough with your hands for about 1-2 minutes. It should be slightly sticky but manageable.
  4. Divide the dough into 4-6 equal portions, depending on your desired naan size. Roll each portion into a ball and then use a rolling pin to flatten it into a round shape, about 1/4-inch thick.
  5. If you’re using nigella or sesame seeds, sprinkle them on top of the naan and gently press them into the dough. You can also sprinkle some chopped parsley or cilantro for added flavor.
  6. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Add a little melted coconut oil, butter, or olive oil. Once hot, place the naan in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Remove the naan from the skillet and place it on a plate. Brush with additional melted coconut oil or butter if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your Keto Naan Bread with your favorite dips, curries, or simply on its own!

Notes

  • You can make the dough ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • The cooked naan can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days or frozen for up to a month.
  • To reheat, warm in a skillet for a few minutes or pop it in the microwave for a few seconds.
