In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, ground cumin, and black pepper until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add olive oil and water. Mix until all liquids are fully combined.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into it. Stir the mixture with a spoon or spatula until it forms a dough.
Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
Place each dough ball between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out with a rolling pin until it is about 6 inches in diameter. Repeat this process with each ball.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Gently peel away the top layer of parchment paper, and carefully transfer the rolled tortilla to the hot skillet by peeling away the bottom parchment paper.
Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until they begin to puff up slightly and develop golden spots.
Remove from the heat and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm and pliable until serving.
These tortillas are best enjoyed fresh; however, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
