In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour, salt, baking powder, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to ensure even distribution of all dry ingredients.
Gradually pour in the water while stirring continuously with a whisk. Mix until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
Add the olive oil to the batter and whisk to combine. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes to allow the chickpea flour to hydrate.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush or spray the skillet with a little additional olive oil if needed.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter into the center of the skillet. Quickly spread it using the back of a spoon or by tilting the skillet to form an even circle, about 6-8 inches in diameter.
Cook the tortilla for about 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until the edges start to lift slightly and the bottom is golden brown.
Flip the tortilla using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until fully cooked and golden.
Transfer the cooked tortilla to a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, ensuring to stir the batter each time before pouring to maintain consistency.
Serve these vegan tortillas warm, and use them for wraps, burritos, tacos, or however you prefer. Enjoy!
