Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large carrots
- 0.5 cups gluten-free oat flour
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseeds
- 5 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons pepper
Instructions
Peel and grate the carrots using a fine grater or food processor. You should aim for about 2 cups of grated carrot.
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseeds and water to create a flaxseed 'egg.' Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated carrots, flaxseed mixture, gluten-free oat flour, olive oil, turmeric powder, paprika powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until a dough-like consistency is achieved. If the mixture feels too dry, add a small amount of water, one teaspoon at a time.
Divide the dough into four equal balls.
Place a sheet of parchment paper on a flat surface, and flatten one dough ball into a round wrap approximately 6-8 inches in diameter. Repeat for all dough balls.
Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place one flattened wrap onto the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and firm. Repeat with the remaining wraps.
Allow the wraps to cool slightly before serving. Use these wraps for your favorite fillings such as hummus, fresh vegetables, or avocado slices for a heart-healthy meal.
