Flaxseed Wraps
Flaxseed Wraps are thin, flexible flatbreads made from eggs, ground flaxseed, shredded mozzarella cheese, warm water, and a pinch of sea salt. The batter is blended until smooth, then cooked in a non-stick pan to create wraps with a tender texture and slightly cheesy flavor. These low-carb wraps are versatile for various fillings and can be served hot or cold.
Ingredients
- 3 egg room temperature, large
- 6 tablespoon Flaxseed 42g, or 4 tablespoons whole flaxseed. Mill to fine flour before adding to the batter, ground
- ¼ cup mozzarella cheese 30g, pre-shredded
- ⅓ cup water 80 ml, warm
- pinch salt sea salt
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients in a food processor or in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until well-combined.
- Heat butter or olive oil in a non-stick frying pan (I used an 8 inch / 20cm pan) over medium heat.
- Scoop 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan. Swirl the pan around so the batter can fill the bottom of the pan. Fry for around 2 minutes. Once the top begins to bubble, flip to brown the other side for 1 extra minute.
- Repeat until all batter has been used up and you have made 6 wraps in total. If you use butter to fry, clean the pan between wraps so the butter does not burn.
- Serve the wraps hot or cold with fillings of your choice.
Notes
- The net carbohydrate count is approximately 2 grams per wrap without fillings.
- Thorough blending prevents mozzarella clumps and results in smoother wraps.
- If the batter thickens during cooking, add a splash of warm water to restore consistency.
- Consider adding spices such as cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper to diversify flavors.
- Use butter or olive oil for frying; clean the pan between wraps to avoid burnt residues.
- This recipe makes six wraps, enough for two filled wraps to serve as a meal portion.
