Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 cup Tapioca starch
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, tapioca starch, salt, ground flaxseed, and baking powder. Stir until evenly mixed.
Add the olive oil and warm water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be moist but not sticky. If necessary, add a little more water or flour to reach the desired consistency.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Place a piece of parchment paper on your work surface and lightly dust it with tapioca starch. Place one dough ball on the parchment and gently press it down.
Cover the ball with another piece of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to roll it into a thin, round tortilla about 6 inches in diameter.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Carefully transfer one tortilla to the skillet using a spatula.
Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden spots appear and the tortilla is cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining dough balls, stacking the cooked tortillas on a plate and covering them with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm.
Serve warm as a wrap or alongside your favorite Mediterranean dishes.
