Are Tortillas Keto Friendly?

Traditionally, tortillas are made from corn. However, today, they often include ingredients like all-purpose flour. Both corn and wheat tortillas are high in net carbs, which makes them unsuitable for a keto diet. The good news is that substituting the ingredients is easy to make keto tortillas.

Ingredients for Low Carb Tortilla Wraps

You'll only need 6 key ingredients and some salt and water to make the best keto tortillas for the whole family!

best low carb tortillas - ingredients on a table
  • Almond flour - Use super-fine and blanched almond flour to avoid a gritty texture.
  • Coconut flour - Make sure it's very fine as well.
  • Egg - Free-range at room temperature.
  • Baking powder
  • Xanthan gum - To add elasticity.
  • Apple cider vinegar - To help the tortillas rise.

How To Make Low Carb Tortillas

Now all that's left to do is grab the ingredients and start cooking! Follow the simple steps below and learn how to make keto tortillas.

  • Combine the dry ingredients. Add the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and a pinch of sea salt in a food processor or blender. Mix all the ingredients until well combined.
  • Add the wet ingredients. Add the apple cider vinegar and blend again. Add the egg and water and blend until the dough forms a sticky ball.

  • Divide the dough. Cut the dough into 8 equal balls and roll out each piece between two sheets of baking paper using a rolling pin. Each piece should form a 5-inch circle tortilla.
Best Low Carb Tortillas Recipe Instructions
  • Cook the tortillas. Heat a dry pan over medium heat. Once it's hot, cook each tortilla for 5 seconds on the first side, flip it, and cook for 30 seconds.

  • Cooked tortillas. Place the cooked tortillas in a stack and cover them with a kitchen towel to keep them hot. Alternatively, reheat the cooked tortillas briefly on each side for a few seconds until soft and elastic.

Storage Instructions

These low carb gluten free tortillas store very well. They can be reheated easily and taste just as good the next day.

  • Refrigerator: Store leftover tortillas in an airtight container or wrapped in plastic. They'll keep for at least 1 week and stay soft and elastic.
  • Freezer: You can also freeze these tortillas. Keep them in a freezer-proof container, and they'll keep for up to 2 months. When ready to cook, thaw them in the fridge overnight.

Low Carb Tortillas Nutrition

There are only 2.9g net carbs and 99 calories in low carb tortillas, making them a light and healthy choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Substitute the Almond Flour?

Yes, you can use ¼ cup (50g) of coconut flour instead of 1 cup (96g) of almond flour. You can also use other low carb flour. Use ¼ cup (50g) flaxseed flour, chia flour, sesame flour, and more.
