Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 Cups Almond Flour (note 1)
  • 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 2 Tablespoons NOW Powdered Psyllium Husk (note 2)
  • 4 Tablespoons Warm Water
  • 2 Tablespoons Heavy Cream
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 cloves Garlic grated
  • Mild Tasting Oil for cooking (note 3)
  • 1/4 Cup Unsalted Butter melted
  • 2 Tablespoons Herbs cilantro/chives

Instructions

  • Combine. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour (1 1/4 cups), baking powder (2 teaspoons), salt (1/2 teaspoon), and psyllium husk (2 tablespoons). In a medium bowl, combine the warm water (4 tablespoons), heavy cream (2 tablespoons), egg (1), and grated garlic (3 cloves). Add the liquid to your dry ingredients and fold until well combined.
  • Shape. Grab a bowl of water, and leave it at the top of your workstation. Place a sheet of parchment paper on the counter, and spray with cooking spray. Now dunk your hands in water (note 4), and shape the dough into 4 balls. Press each ball into a flat disk that's about 1/2" thick. Use wet hands to smooth out any cracks that have formed in the dough.
  • Cook. Heat a cast-iron over medium-high heat, until it’s hotttt! Add a splash of oil, followed by 1 piece of naan. Cover the cast-iron with a lid, and cook this way for 1 minute. Remove the lid, flip the naan, and cook the other side uncovered for another 1-2 minutes. Wrap cooked naan in a dishtowel as you cook the rest.
  • Serve. Before serving, brush each piece of naan with melted butter, sprinkle with fresh herbs and enjoy!

Notes

  1. Almond Flour. A fine-grained almond flour (such as Bob's Red Mill or Trader Joe's brand) will give you the most traditional flour-like results. 
  2. Psyllium Husk. I only recommended using NOW Psyllium Husk Powder to make this recipe (other brands can turn baked goods purple!)
  3. Mild Tasting Oil. I always use avocado oil--you want something with a high smoke point that's also mild in flavor.
  4. The dough WILL crack, but don't worry! Just use wet hands to smooth out the cracks. This is the nature of our flour combo.
