The way of preparation – easy

Prep time

  • Prep time – 10 minutes
  • Cook time – 5 minutes

Yields – 6 tortillas

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Coconut flour
  • 1 tablespoon Flaxseed meal
  • 3 tablespoons Ground Psyllium husk
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon Pepper – optional
  • 1 cup Water – lukewarm ( 100 F)

Instructions on how to make Coconut flour tortillas

  • In a medium mixing bowl, add coconut flour, flaxseed meal, psyllium husk, pepper, baking powder, and salt.
  • Whisk the dry ingredients to evenly combine then pour in the lukewarm water
  • Combine the ingredients together using a spoon first
  • Later use your hands to knead the dough, and make a ball
  • When the dough ball has formed, set aside in the mixing bowl, at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • This will give some times to the fiber to absorb the moisture and get the dough elastic and easy to roll.
  • Divide the dough ball into 4 even balls and roll each ball of dough between two pieces of parchment paper.
  • This will prevent the dough to stick to your roller pin and benchtop.
  • Roll about 4 mm thick.
  • Peel off the top piece of parchment paper. Cut out circle, about 6 inches (15 cm diameter), you can use a lid as a guide.
  • Gather the outside dough to reform a ball and roll another tortilla and reach 6 tortillas in total.
  • Warm a non-stick pan under medium-high heat for about 1 minute.
  • Rub the surface of the pan with some oil using a piece of absorbent paper or a brush.
  • Don’t add oil directly in the pan or it will fry the tortilla.
  • When the pan is warm, flip over the tortilla onto the pan
  • Cook on medium/high heat for 2-3 minutes on one side or until it is easy to slide a spatula under the tortillas. Flip over and cook for 1 more minute on the other side. Repeat the rolling, cooking process until all tortillas has been cooked.
  • Cool down each tortillas on a plate while making the next one.
  • The hot tortillas are soft and looks fragile but they gets all their elasticity and strength to hold food when cool down.
  • Serve and enjoy
