In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, water, and olive oil until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a dough forms. The dough should be smooth and slightly sticky.
Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and roll each part into a ball.
Place one dough ball between two sheets of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to flatten it out to your desired thickness, ideally about 6 inches in diameter to mimic the size of a standard tortilla.
Gently peel away the top layer of parchment paper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to the skillet, cooking for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
Allow the tortillas to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them as a wrap, with your favorite low-carb filling, or as part of a delicious taco.
