Cassava Flour Tortillas (Paleo, AIP)
Description
This recipe for Cassava Flour Tortillas requires mixing cassava flour with avocado oil, warm water, and sea salt to form a thick dough. Allowing the dough to rest for at least an hour relaxes the flour, making it easier to roll out. The dough is then flattened and cut into sections, which are rolled into discs of preferred thickness based on usage—from thinner for tortillas to thicker for naan-like flatbreads.
Each disc is cooked in a medium-low heat non-stick skillet until puffed and slightly bubbly, typically taking 2 to 3 minutes per side. This method yields tortillas with a flexible texture suitable for tacos, tostadas, enchiladas, or wraps. The simple ingredient list makes it accessible for paleo or autoimmune protocol diets.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cassava flour Bobs Red Mill brand
- 3/4 cup avocado oil
- 3/4 cup water warm
- 2 tsp salt sea salt
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a mixing bowl. Stir well until everything is well combined and a dough forms. Form the dough into a ball. Allow the dough to sit at room temperature (or transfer to the refrigerator) for at least 1 hour.
- Flatten the tortilla dough into a disc.
- Cut into 8 to 10 sections (note: for thinner tortillas, go with 10..for thicker, naan-like flatbread, go with 6 to 8). Roll each section out into a disc using a rolling pin, a wine bottle, or press into a disc your hands.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet to medium-low and spray with cooking oil.
- Transfer one disc of dough to the skillet and cook until it begins to puff up and bubble, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip to the other side and continue cooking another minute or two. Repeat for remaining dough.
- Use tortillas for tacos, tostadas, enchiladas, wraps, etc!
