The Best Keto Tortillas

These Keto tortillas are soft, pliable, and unbelievably easy to prepare. They are also dairy-free and vegan, making them suitable for many diets. These tortillas are one of the best and most versatile Keto recipes you’ll ever try.

How to make Keto tortillas that aren’t dry and don’t fall apart?

These tortillas are made by mixing almond flour and warm water. To bind them and keep them pliable, psyllium seeds and xanthan gum are added. When mixed together, these ingredients form an intact dough. Divide the dough into balls, roll them out, and cook them in a pan for a minute on each side until barely golden.

How many tortillas does this recipe yield?

This recipe makes 6 small tortillas, measuring 6 inches (15 cm). However, you can also make 3 or 4 larger tortillas.

Can you use psyllium powder instead?

Unfortunately, no. Psyllium seeds and psyllium husk powder are not interchangeable in this Keto tortilla recipe.

Did your tortillas come out purple or green?

Some brands of psyllium husk can turn slightly purple or green when cooked. But don’t worry, this reaction is normal and won’t affect the flavor of the tortillas.

How can you enjoy these tortillas?

These tortillas are super versatile and can be used in many easy Keto recipes. You can fill a tortilla with scrambled eggs, salsa, avocado, and cheese for a delicious vegetarian breakfast wrap. You can also use these low-carb tortillas to make enchiladas, soft shell tacos, and quesadillas.

What’s the best way to store these low-carb tortillas?

To keep these tortillas soft and pliable, place them on a plate, and put paper towels between them to prevent them from sticking together. Tightly wrap the dish in cling film, and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. Let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before using.

40 min

  • Step 1

    To a bowl, add the almond flour, psyllium seeds, xanthan gum, and salt. Whisk until the psyllium husk is well distributed. Make a hole in the center of the dry ingredients to pour the wet ingredients in.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Add the water and oil to the hole you made, and mix using a wooden spoon or spatula. Keep folding for a couple of minutes until an intact dough forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough sit for 15 minutes.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Divide the dough into 5 equal balls. Working with one at a time, place each ball between 2 pieces of greased parchment paper. Roll until 1/8 inch thick.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Place a 6 inch/ 15 cm wide bowl on top of the dough, and use a knife to cut around it to get a perfect circle. Repeat with all the other dough balls. Collect all the extra dough ( from cutting around the bowl) and combine them into another dough ball. Roll it out as you did previously.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Place a nonstick pan over medium-low heat and brush its surface with a little bit of oil. Working with one at a time, transfer the uncooked tortilla to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Flip and cook for another 30-45 seconds.
    Step 5
  • Step 6

    Transfer the cooked tortilla to a plate and cover with a wet towel. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas. Serve immediately.

    Any chance you can substitute psyllium seeds with flax seeds or ground flax seed??? It says in the description you can substitute psyllium seed with psyllium husk but in your comment below you said you can use psyllium husk?? So can I use psyllium husk or no???

      Could you substitute coconut flour & psyllium husk instead?

        You can use psyllium husk, but for the coconut flour, you would have to use 1/4 cup instead of 1 cup. We haven't tested it with coconut flour though.
