Are almond flour tortillas healthy?

Of course, everyone has a different definition of healthy. However, these tortillas are low-carb, gluten-free, grain-free, refined sugar-free, and full of healthy fats and fiber. As a result, they can be included as a healthy component of most diets. Be sure to check with your doctor regarding any specific concerns!

Is almond flour considered low carb?

Yes, almond flour contains 3 grams of total carbs and has only 1 gram of net carbs per every 2 tablespoons, making it the most popular low-carb, keto flour option on the market.

How long do almond flour tortillas last?

Stored in an airtight container, these tortillas will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. To prevent them from sticking together, place a clean paper towel between each piece.

Can I freeze these tortillas?

Yes! To freeze, place a piece of parchment paper between each tortilla, transfer them to a sealable bag, and keep them in the freezer for up to 2 months. Then, let them thaw in the fridge before enjoying them.

Can I substitute the almond flour?

We don’t recommend substituting the almond flour. Different flours will yield different consistencies and textures, and we cannot guarantee your results. If you’re looking for a different option, try out our gluten-free coconut flour tortillas instead!

Can I add spices to the batter?

Sure! Feel free to incorporate any spices you like best into the mixture of dry ingredients before forming the batter. Some of our favorite options include paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder for a slightly warm, savory taste.

Instructions

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the almond flour, psyllium husk fiber, tapioca flour and optional salt. Whisk together to ensure there are no flour clumps or use a blender to quickly pulse ingredients together.
Gently stir the room temperature milk into the flour mixture. Place batter aside, cover with a towel, and place in the fridge for 10 to 15 minutes to chill, it will also expand in size (see notes).
Form the dough into a ball and cut the dough into 4 even sections. Using a rolling pin, roll out each section of dough between two pieces of floured parchment paper to ⅛ to ¼ inch thick. Then use a small sauce pot lid (about 5 inch diameter) to cut a circle in the dough. See notes* Repeat until you have 4 to 6 tortillas.
Heat a nonstick or cast iron pan over medium-low heat. Brush the pan evenly with 2 teaspoons of olive oil or spray with non-stick spray. Pick up the parchment paper holding the rolled out tortilla, carefully flip the paper over to place the tortilla into the hot pan and peel off the parchment paper carefully.
Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown. (Each side will slightly rise and puff while cooking.)
Serve tortillas right away or store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Place a paper towel between each tortilla and store in an airtight container.

Notes

Prep Tips – Chilled dough is easier to roll out between parchment paper, preventing sticking. Use a tortilla press (vs pot lid) to get the perfect thickness and shape!

Storage Tips – For long-term storage in the freezer, place parchment paper between each tortilla and place in an airtight container or plastic storage bag for up to 2 months.
