Homemade Low-Carb Tortillas

Ingredients:
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup vital wheat gluten
1 cup soy flour
3 Tablespoons lard
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup water

Mix almond flour, vital wheat gluten, soy flour and salt. Cut in lard until mixture resembles fine crumbs ? like little peas (a pastry blender works well for this.) Slowly add water, 2 Tablespoons at a time, mixing well until ingredients form a ball. Cover and let dough rest for 20 minutes.

Divide dough into 16 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball. Sprinkle countertop with protein powder or a thin coating of oat flour. Flatten balls, one at a time, as much as possible then roll each flattened ball out into a circle approximately 6-inches in diameter.

Heat nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place dough circles in pan, one at a time. Cook just until lightly browned then turn over and lightly brown other side. Repeat with remaining dough. Store cooked tortillas between damp paper towels until done cooking all tortillas. These freeze very well. Reheat wrapped in damp paper towel for about 15 seconds or until warm and soft.

Makes 16 tortillas. 1.7 grams net carbs per tortilla.




Havent tried it yet but some Keto Fajitas would be awesome! Does this look keto friendly?

Or you could buy some from the store...

Or you could buy some from the store...

Most of the store brand low carb totillas contain whole wheat and oats as the main ingredients and net at least 4 carbs / serving. The ingredients above, while more expensive, are less than 1.5g net. Meaning you could enjoy twice as many; and I love fajitas

Plus the prepackaged ones can't compete with homemade -- I just hope that applies to this recipe too....

EDIT: They were edible but had a strange taste. I'd rather buy higher carb ones from the store.
