Cuisine: American

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour packed
  • ½ cup tapioca flour packed
  • ¼ salt sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin optional
  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons water warm

Instructions

Make the dough:
    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk almond flour, tapioca flour, and salt to combine.
  2. Add oil and combine. Slowly add the water, one tablespoon at a time, and knead with your hands to combine.
  3. Transfer dough onto a flat surface and knead for about a minute to combine. If the dough is too wet, add a little more almond flour. If too dry, add a teaspoon or two of water. Dough texture will vary by how you measure the flour, but generally, it should feel like playdough. For additional tips, see kitchen notes below.
Form the tortillas:
  1. Divide dough in half, and then evenly into 8 pieces total. Knead and roll each piece with your hands into small balls. At this point, you can refrigerate the dough balls for right before cooking.
  2. Place one dough ball between two pieces of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll dough between two pieces of parchment paper. With a tortilla press, flatten dough into a 4-6-inch tortilla.
Cook the tortillas:
  1. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Do not grease.
  2. Peel off the top parchment and flip the tortilla onto a hot skillet, pulling away from the second piece of parchment paper. Cook the first side for about 20 seconds, to brown the other side for 30 to 45 seconds until the other side is browned and bubbly. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Serve & Store:
  1. Immediately transfer the warm tortilla inside a tortilla warmer or place it between two kitchen towels to keep warm. These tortillas are best served warmed.
  2. Refrigerate leftover tortillas. To reheat, warm them in the toaster oven. The dough can also be kept in the fridge for up to a week and make these tortillas when you need them.

Notes

  • I use a large skillet for these since I can cook 4-6 tortillas at a time. Working quickly is a must since they are most pliable when warm.
