Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Hot water
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 large Egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the hot water, olive oil, and egg until fully combined.

Step 4

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a dough forms. Make sure there are no dry spots or lumps.

Step 5

Let the dough sit for 5 minutes to allow the psyllium husk to absorb moisture and thicken the dough.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. With slightly wet hands to prevent sticking, form each piece into a ball.

Step 7

Flatten each ball into a round disc, about 1/4-inch thick, and place on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the pitas have puffed up and are golden brown.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
