Cassava Flour Tortillas

RD_Cassava Flour Tortillas

A gluten free alternative to your regular flour tortillas! I have a corn intolerance and I’ve been buying cassava flour tortillas from an online store. When I went to order another pack of 8, the price went up to 15.99 for 8 tortillas!! Crazy right? So, I thought I’d try to make my own, and here they are!

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cup Cassava Flour (I used Otto’s)

  • 3/4 tsp Salt

  • 3 tbsp Avocado Oil

  • 3/4 cup warm Water (more if needed)

Method:

  1. In a large bowl whisk together the flour and salt. Add in oil and warm water and mix to until a dough starts to form.

  2. Divide dough into 10 equal portions and then form into balls.

  3. Place one ball between two pieces of parchment paper and roll until thin. Alternatively, you can use a tortilla press.

  4. Carefully place beef in the skillet and don’t move it! Wait for a nice sear (nice brown crust) then turn it and sear the next side. Repeat so that you’ve seared all the beef.

  5. Heat a skillet on medium to medium high heat. Once heated add a tortilla and wait until bubbles form and then flip. The tortilla should be slightly browned.

  6. Place on a plate and cover with a towel to keep warm. Serve with my Shredded Beef Tacos and enjoy! ♥
