Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Ground flaxseed (golden or brown)
- 0.5 cup Boiling water
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Garlic powder (optional)
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the ground flaxseed, salt, and any optional seasonings like garlic powder or black pepper.
Pour the boiling water into the bowl and quickly stir the mixture with a spoon or spatula. The flaxseed will absorb the water and form a dough-like consistency.
Add the olive oil to the mixture and knead it gently with your hands (be careful as it may still be warm). The dough should be smooth and pliable.
Divide the dough into four equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Place one dough ball between two sheets of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to flatten it into a thin, round wrap about 8 inches in diameter.
Carefully peel off the top layer of parchment paper and transfer the rolled-out wrap to a dry, non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Cook the wrap for 2-3 minutes on one side until it starts to firm up and develop light golden spots. Flip it over and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
Allow the wraps to cool slightly before using them. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
