Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cassava flour
  • 0.25 cup Coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
  • 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.75 cup Warm water
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cassava flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 2

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the warm water and olive oil.

Step 3

Stir the mixture with a spoon until it begins to come together, then use your hands to knead the dough within the bowl until smooth and pliable.

Step 4

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each piece into a ball. Cover the dough balls with a clean towel to prevent drying.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat.

Step 6

On a lightly floured surface (using cassava or coconut flour), roll out each ball of dough into a thin round tortilla, approximately 6 inches in diameter.

Step 7

Place the rolled-out tortilla onto the hot skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the underside has golden spots.

Step 8

Flip the tortilla and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining dough balls. Keep the cooked tortillas warm and covered with a clean towel until ready to serve.

Step 10

Enjoy your low-carb cassava tortillas with your favorite fillings or as a delicious accompaniment to any meal.
