cassava flour

tapioca starch

baking powder

salt

Spectrum brand non hydrogenated vegetable shortening

water

In a large bowl, place the cassava flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine well.

Add the shortening or coconut oil, and mix until evenly distributed through the dry ingredients. Use the back of the mixing spoon to press in the shortening.

Add the warm water and mix, then knead until the dough comes together. It should come together well, but may crumble into moist shards.

Press the dough together, and then cover the mixing bowl. Allow the dough to sit for about 30 minutes. It will absorb moisture as it rests.

Prepare the tortilla dough.

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions, each about 65 grams. Work with one piece of dough at a time, keeping the rest of the dough covered.

Place a large, heavy-bottom (ideally, cast iron) skillet over medium-high heat. If your skillet isn’t cast iron or nonstick, grease very lightly to prevent the dough from sticking.

Shape the tortilla dough.

Open the tortilla press and drape the prepared plastic over both halves of the open press. Shape the first piece of dough into a round, press it into a disk, and place it in the center of the plastic-lined bottom of the press.

Close the tortilla press, enclosing the dough on both halves of the plastic, and press the press down using the lever to flatten the dough.

Remove the dough from the press, still in the plastic, and using your rolling pin to roll further into a thinner round, about 6.5-inches in diameter.

If using a tortilla press.

Shape the first piece of dough into a round, press it into a disk, and place it in the center of one half of the prepared plastic.

Cover the dough with the other half of the plastic, encasing the disk of dough fully in the plastic.

Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a thin round about 6.5-inches in diameter.

If not using a tortilla press.

If you’re using a 6-inch round cutter, press it onto the round of dough to create a clean 6-inch disk. Carefully remove the excess dough from the edges, taking care not to disturb the clean edges.

To ensure that the dough won&#39;t stick to the plastic, open the plastic carefully, peeling it away without disturbing the dough. Replace the plastic, turn the whole thing over, and peel away the other side of the plastic carefully, leaving the raw tortilla exposed.

Transfer the shaped dough to the skillet.

Once the skillet is properly heated, remove the raw tortilla from the plastic by placing one hand on top of the shaped dough, inverting the dough on that hand, and peeling the plastic away with your other hand.

Place the raw tortilla on the skillet. Wait for the air bubbles to form (about 40 to 60 seconds) and then use a wide, flat metal spatula to flip it over.

Press down on the top of the tortilla with a spatula to help the second side cook evenly. Cook the second side until set, about 20 seconds.

Remove the tortilla from the skillet before it becomes stiff.

Repeat with the remaining pieces of dough. Stack the prepared tortillas one on top of the other, and cover with a tea towel to keep them warm.

Cook the tortillas.

Serve the tortillas immediately, while still warm. They may stick together a bit in the stack, as they sit. Just carefully peel them carefully, one from the other.

Serving instructions.

Once the tortillas are fully cool, you can wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or place the stack in a quart-sized zip-top plastic bag.

Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Refresh in the microwave for 10 seconds, or sprinkle lightly with water and refresh in a hot, dry skillet until warm and pliable.

Easy grain-free cassava flour tortillas that are perfectly chewy, soft, and easy to fold without cracking. Just 4 ingredients, 1 bowl, and 30 minutes required!

Cassava Flour Tortillas (Grain-Free)

Tbsp tapioca starch ((also called tapioca flour))

tsp sea salt

vegan butter

To a medium bowl, add cassava flour, tapioca starch, and sea salt. Whisk to combine. Add warm water and melted vegan butter. Stir using a spatula or wooden spoon for about 1-2 minutes (it will look wet at first) until the mixture has a texture that’s slightly softer than Play-Doh. If too dry, add more water 1 Tbsp (15 ml) at a time. If too sticky, add more cassava flour 1 tsp at a time. Shape the dough into a ball and cut it into 6 equal pieces for taco-sized* tortillas.

Place a piece of parchment paper onto your work surface and dust lightly with more cassava flour. Place a portion of dough onto the center of the cassava flour and dust with more flour. Use your hands to flatten the dough and shape it into a disk. Now use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to ~7 inches, adding more flour to the top of the dough if it begins to stick. You want to get them as thin as possible while still being able to handle them! We found it works best to roll from the center out, turning the paper in 1/4-circle movements and repeating until it is all rolled out. We noticed using a back-and-forth motion made the tortillas more prone to tearing and being uneven!

Heat a cast iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Flip the tortilla into your hand and gently peel off the parchment paper before flipping it onto the skillet, being careful not to let it fold on itself. Cook for ~30 seconds — until the tortilla begins to bubble — before flipping and cooking for another 30-45 seconds.

While waiting for the first tortilla to cook, roll out the next one. Until you get the hang of it, you can cook a tortilla, remove it from the pan, and turn the heat to low before rolling out the next one!

Serve the tortillas warm with your desired fillings. They’re perfect for making tacos, small burritos, quesadillas, and enchiladas. Their neutral flavor and pliable texture also makes them very satisfying to tear and dip into dals and curries.

Leftover tortillas will keep stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days or in the freezer for 1 month (separated by pieces of parchment paper). Reheat in a skillet on the stove when ready to enjoy next!

Cassava Flour Tortillas (Grain-Free) | Minimalist Baker Recipes

Grain free tortillas

160 g (1 cup) cassava flour (see notes)

7.5 g (1 1/2 teaspoons) psyllium husk powder

white sugar

butter

- 1 cup (180-250 milliliters) boiling water

Tapioca flour (for rolling)

Vegetable oil (for cooking)

Combine all the ingredients except the boiling water in a mixing bowl and whisk to incorporate.

Add the boiling water, starting with 1/2 cup (125ml). Stir quickly and add more water as necessary. The dough should be slightly sticky and moist with no dry flour on the bottom.

Once it is cool enough to handle, knead the dough into a smooth ball and cover. Leave for 5-10 minutes.

Liberally flour a clean, dry bench top with tapioca flour. Divide the dough into four tortillas. The offcuts from each will form the fifth tortilla, so set those aside as you work.

Roll each tortilla to your desired width (about 2-3mm – any thicker and they become too chewy). Use a large circular cutter or the lip of a circular bowl to cut each tortilla into a round. Set them aside without touching each other, and finish by gathering all the offcuts for the last tortilla.

Preheat a pan to a high heat for 2-3 minutes. Add a splash of vegetable oil to the pan once hot, and cook the first tortilla. Cook for a minute or so before flipping (this will depend on how hot your pan is). Flip and cook on the other side, before transferring to a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

Serve warm or store in an airtight container. The tortillas are best fresh, but reheating them in the microwave or a steamy oven will restore their flexibility.

Fantastic for burritos! Followed the recipe as written with one sub using avocado oil for the butter.  Thanks Georgia!

Made these last night, oh wow! They are really great. I actually made small corn tortilla size ones, as I had a tortilla press from the days when I could eat flour and masa tortillas. The press worked brilliantly, gorgeous round tortillas with absolutely no effort if you have one. 
P.S. My "normal" partner loved them and also won't buy bread for himself because yours is better!! 
Thank you so much
