Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Tapioca starch
- 1 tablespoon Ground flaxseed
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, tapioca starch, ground flaxseed, salt, and baking powder. Stir until evenly mixed.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, mixing continuously until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
Divide the dough into four equal parts and shape each piece into a ball.
Place a ball of dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out into a thin circle using a rolling pin. The thickness should be around 1/8 inch.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Carefully peel one tortilla from the parchment and place it onto the hot skillet.
Cook the tortilla for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until it becomes golden brown and small bubbles form on the surface. Repeat this process for the remaining dough balls.
Once cooked, place the tortillas on a plate lined with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm and soft until ready to serve.
Serve the tortillas immediately or store them in an airtight container for up to two days. Reheat them in a skillet before serving.
