Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Protein powder (unflavored)
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
Directions
Step 1
Wash the fresh spinach leaves thoroughly and drain them.
Step 2
In a blender, combine spinach leaves and water. Blend until a smooth puree forms.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, protein powder, salt, and baking powder. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 4
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the spinach puree and olive oil.
Step 5
Mix using a spoon or your hands until you form a smooth and pliable dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour until it is manageable.
Step 6
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 10 minutes.
Step 7
Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces and shape each piece into a small ball.
Step 8
On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough ball into a thin tortilla, around 8 inches in diameter.
Step 9
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Step 10
Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until light brown spots appear and it puffs slightly.
Step 11
Remove the tortilla from the skillet and cover with a towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Step 12
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for later use.
