Are Tortillas Keto Friendly?
Traditional tortillas are commonly made with high carb ingredients such as wheat or corn, making them non-compliant for a Keto diet. However, our Keto tortilla recipe uses low carb almond flour to create a Keto friendly dough. Being on a low carb diet doesn’t have to mean missing out on your favorite meals, as there are often easy to prepare Keto alternatives to replace your favorite foods. These easy tortillas are a great example!
How Many Carbs Does a Tortilla Have?
Traditionally made tortillas are laden with carbs. Our Keto tortillas however can be enjoyed guilt free. At only 2g of net carbs per tortilla and 9g of fat, you can comfortably indulge in this low carb alternative without fear of undoing all your hard work.

Ingredients
Almond Flour
1-¼ cup
Baking Aids Xanthan Gum by Bob's Red Mill
2 teaspoon
Baking Powder

Coarse Kosher Salt by Morton
¼ tsp
Apple Cider Vinegar
2 teaspoon
Raw Egg
1 large
Water
1 teaspoon
Recipe Steps
steps 7
15 min
Step 1
Add the almond flour, xanthan gum, baking powder and salt to a food processor. Pulse the ingredients together until well combined.Step 2
Crack the egg into the food processor. Add the vinegar and water. Blend again until well combined. A ball of dough should start to form in the food processor.Step 3
Turn the dough out onto a sheet of plastic wrap. Wrap the plastic around the dough to cover it completely. Knead the dough in the plastic wrap for 1-2 minutes to bring the dough together. Set the dough aside to rest for 10 minutes.Step 4
Once rested, unpeel the plastic wrap from around the dough. Divide the dough into 8 even sized portions. Roll each portion of dough into a ball with your hands.Step 5
Place each ball of dough in between two pieces of parchment paper. Roll as thin as possible to create a round tortilla. Repeat this process with each ball of dough so that you have 8 tortillas.Step 6
In the meantime, begin heating a non-stick skillet until hot. The pan is hot enough when a drop of water runs around the pan, but does not evaporate right away. Gently peel the dough from the parchment paper and place it flat in the hot pan. Cook on each side for less than 30 seconds (if it doesn’t cook this fast the pan is not hot enough). You will begin to see the edges starting to turn brown and the underside will have char marks. Flip the tortilla and cook on the other side for a few seconds. Do not overcook them or they will not be pliable and will crack.Step 7
Stack the tortillas on a plate underneath a kitchen towel once cooked. This will keep them warm until ready to serve. Serve with your favorite low carb fillings.

Has anyone used the Siete brand tortillas in the frozen section? Is it allowed

I never write reviews, but this is disgusting. I will never do this again don’t even waste your time. I did my own take tortillas. I used almond flour, olive oil, little bit of salt and baking powder and I added almond milk as needed

Has anyone used this dough in a traditional tortilla press? Too sticky, or easier?

Use plastic wrap to roll the dough, much easier

It's misleading to say this makes 8 tortillas. It makes 8 tortillas if they are the size of a child's hand. I had better success with sticking the dough in the fridge until it was cold, then rolling it between oiled parchment. Next time, I'd try cooling the dough after it's rolled in the freezer and see if that didn't help with the stickiness.

Can these be frozen?

I think these were even better once cooled. Not pliable, but great as a chip. I sprinkled some with Parmesan and salt for snack chips. Easy to make. I blended by hand.

Tasted quite good but I didn't get 8. I got 4. Next time I'll double the recipe. Also, they were pliable but broke while eating...

Easy recipe to follow and was able to mix totally by hand without food processor. Next time I am going to try adding 1/4 grated parm cheese to beef up the flavor. Really the best keto tortillas we’ve tried to date. Thanx

I used my hand mixer as well and they turned out fine

Used my hand mixer. Took another suggestion and used lime juice instead of ACV. Turned out awesome!

Omg these are sooo good. Fried egg with wasabi mayo, lettuce, onion and green Tabasco sauce. Heaven

Loved the taste, but the calculations are off. Difficult to get to fineness without them becoming to hard to remain pliable. I made them into semi-hard pieces.

Great taste and easy to make, I followed the recipe except for the apple cider vinegar as I didn’t have any, I substituted lime juice. They were very pliable and held up so nicely! I read that some people were having trouble with it sticking to the parchment paper so before I pressed them I sprayed a very tiny bit of avocado oil on the paper and they came off super easy onto the pan. I did had quite a bit dough left over I will try making tortilla chips with it.

Taste great when butter is added, but these are NOT pliable. I really want to figure out how to make them pliable.

These are great as a chip! I cut them in quarters brushed with oil and baked at 375 them for 10 min!

Is there any substitution for Xanthan Gum?
SplendidArugula220476 3 years ago
Psyllium can be used as a substitute
SpectacularKale856441 4 years ago
Ok I put the, in the freezer and the first one fell apart then I got the others off the paper and used a little butter in the pan and they are awesome
SpectacularKale856441 4 years ago
I found Xanthan Gum at smart and final, I’d never heard of it. I like the idea of putting the parchment with dough in freezer.
