"Corn" Tortilla

"Corn" Tortilla

1¼ cup almond flour

1½ tsp xanthan gum

1 tsp psyllium husk powder

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp cumin

¼ tsp garlic powder

1 egg

3 Tbsp. Water

Avocado oil

1.      Combine the first six ingredients in a food processor and blend until just combined.

2.      Combine the egg and water in a small bowl and beat well with a fork.

3.      Turn the food processor on to low and slowly pour the egg/water mixture into the processor. Mix until completely combined and dough forms a firm ball. It may be slightly sticky.

4.      Dump the dough onto a piece of parchment paper and form it together into a ball.

5.      Place another piece of parchment paper over the top of the dough and roll into one large thin sheet of dough about 1/4" thick.

6.      Use a cookie/biscuit cutter, small bowl or large cup to cut a 5-6" size circle. Place cut circles between two pieces of parchment paper and roll just a bit more to thin them out evenly and create 8” tortillas.

7.      Heat a small skillet to medium and brush oil onto the bottom of the pan with a basting brush.

8.      Add one tortilla at a time, brushing the skillet each time, and cook about 10-15 seconds total per side.

9.      Remove and place on a paper towel or clean linen towel to stay warm.
