Keto naan bread is a delicious accompaniment to curry to enjoy with your friends and family, and tastes almost identical to the original. It’s easy to make and requires very little cooking skills. If you know how to cook a pancake, you know how to make naan bread.
Firstly, let’s have a little bit of a discussion. The keto diet takes away rice…. then it takes away bread! What on earth are you supposed to eat with curry?
Well, this is where cauliflower rice and keto naan bread come in. With a little extra preparation, you’ll be able to enjoy a delicious curry from your local takeaway shop without ordering naan bread, and love every second of your decision.
I love the curry that comes from Punjabi Palace here in Brisbane. The owner is such a proud man and has photos of himself and the Indian cricket team up on the wall. I’m pretty sure he has the Australian cricket team up on the wall too.
For some reason, I’ve always ordered chicken tikka masala. Does anyone else order the same thing? My fiance, Adele, loves to get the lamb korma, which is also good, but nothing beats a good juicy tikka masala.
From my research, tikka means small pieces of meat marinated in spices, and masala means spice mix. So translated into English, it’s literally “small pieces of meat in spice mix” curry. Kinda cool, right?
Keto Naan Bread Almond Flour
This recipe, like my keto bread roll recipe, utilizes the wonderful properties of psyllium husk powder to get the wrap-like texture that so many people love.
Coconut flour is the main ingredient within the keto naan bread, but you can always substitute this with almond flour. Instead of using 60 g coconut flour, use 90 g almond flour for a very similar texture.
Naan Without Psyllium Husk
This recipe can be easily adapted to using ground up flaxseed or chia seed as a substitute for the psyllium husk powder. I’ve used ground flaxseed and hot water to make keto wraps before and they are super delicious and just as flexible as the ones using psyllium husk powder.

Hi Aaron
Do you have to use the p/husk in the recipe? Are you able to leave it out??
Thank you
Unfortunately this ingredient cannot be left out, otherwise, this recipe will not work sorry.
Sorry for the confusion but does the nutrition info say one wrap is 15g of carbs??
Hi Katie,

I am allergic to coconut and almonds and sesame seeds.
Which flour can I use as a substitute.
Sorry sam, I’m not sure I can help you here.
Hi ; you could use sunflower seeds and make your own flour , it’s 1:1 to almond flour
OMG I just fried up some bacon and used the naan as a wrap for breakfast – so yummy. Thanks for the recipe Aaron. I love it
Thank you for the recipe, this Naan bread is super tasty.
What can I sub for Psyllium husk?
The recipe says you substitute it for flaxseed or chia seed
Hi Aaron
Do you use the same amount of flaxseeds as psyllium husks and how much hot water do you use.
Thanks
Jo
Hi Jo, this ratio should work, however, I haven’t tried this method. I’ve only tried it with straight flaxseed (which is available in my keto bread book)
Do u suggest preparing up to instruction 3 night before for cooking in the morning? Thanks
Sure! I haven’t done this before, but if the dough becomes hard, add some more hot water.
