Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.75 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca starch, ground flaxseed, and baking powder. Mix well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed.
In a small mixing bowl, mix the water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion 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 tortilla, about 6 inches in diameter. Repeat for the remaining dough balls.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully peel the tortilla off the parchment paper and place it in the skillet.
Cook the tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until it has light brown spots and is cooked through.
Remove from heat and place on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas.
Serve warm or allow to cool before storing in an airtight container.
