Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.5 cup tapioca starch
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon water
- 0 extra tapioca starch (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, tapioca starch, and sea salt. Stir well until the dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
Step 2
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the eggs, olive oil, and water.
Step 3
Use a fork to gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the wet ingredients until a rough dough forms.
Step 4
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface (using extra tapioca starch for dusting) and knead the dough for about 2-3 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 5
Divide the dough into four equal portions. Keep the portions you are not currently working on wrapped in plastic wrap or covered with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
Step 6
Using a rolling pin, roll out each portion of dough into a thin sheet, about 1/8 inch thick. Add more tapioca starch as needed to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Cut the rolled-out pasta dough into strips to your desired thickness using a sharp knife or a pasta cutter.
Step 8
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the pasta strips into the boiling water and cook for about 2-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are tender but firm to the bite.
Step 9
Drain the pasta and serve immediately with your favorite Paleo-friendly sauce or toppings.
