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
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, tapioca starch, salt, ground flaxseed, and baking powder. Stir until evenly mixed.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
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.
Step 6
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Carefully transfer one tortilla to the skillet using a spatula.
Step 7
Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden spots appear and the tortilla is cooked through.
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining dough balls, stacking the cooked tortillas on a plate and covering them with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm.
Step 9
Serve warm as a wrap or alongside your favorite Mediterranean dishes.
