3 Ingredient Grain Free Tortillas Recipe
Introduction
These 3 Ingredient Grain Free Tortillas are quick to make and perfect for anyone avoiding grains. Soft and flexible, they’re great for wraps, tacos, or as a side to your favorite dishes.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup tapioca starch or arrowroot starch (60g)
- 1/2 cup chickpea flour (50g)
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk, from a can (240ml)
Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together the tapioca starch and chickpea flour until fully combined. Stir in the coconut milk and mix until you have a thick, smooth batter without lumps.
- Step 2: Preheat a large non-stick or well-seasoned cast iron pan over medium heat.
- Step 3: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Use the back of a spoon to spread it into a thin circle about 6 inches wide. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges set and tiny air bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes.
- Step 4: Transfer the cooked tortilla to a plate to cool. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
- Step 5: Once cooled, store the tortillas in an airtight container or ziplock bag in the fridge.
Tips & Variations
- Use arrowroot starch if you prefer a slightly lighter texture than tapioca starch.
- Warm tortillas before serving to soften them if they have firmed up after refrigeration.
- Add a pinch of salt or spices to the batter for extra flavor.
Storage
Store the tortillas in an airtight container or ziplock bag in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They will firm up when chilled, so bring them to room temperature for about 30 minutes or warm them in the microwave for 10-20 seconds before use.
How to Serve
Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.
FAQs
Can I use another kind of flour instead of chickpea flour?
Chickpea flour provides both structure and a mild flavor. Substituting it may affect texture and taste, but you can experiment with other bean flours or gluten-free blends for different results.
Are these tortillas suitable for a grain-free diet?
Yes, these tortillas use tapioca starch (or arrowroot starch) and chickpea flour, which are both grain-free and gluten-free, making them great for grain-free diets.
