Grain Free Tortillas/Crepes
(makes about 6 - 8 crepes)
1 Cup Tapioca Flour
1 Cup Water, Milk or Milk Substitute (or combination)
2-3 Tablespoons Coconut Flour
1 Cup Tapioca Flour
1 Cup Water, Milk or Milk Substitute (or combination)
2-3 Tablespoons Coconut Flour
1 Egg
Optional Seasonings
For Tacos/Burritos -
1/8 Teaspoon Onion Powder, 1/8 Teaspoon
Garlic Powder, 1/4 Teaspoon Ground Cumin,
a dash of Salt and a sprinkling of Italian Seasoning.
For a sweeter version -
1/8 Teaspoon Nutmeg, 1/4 Teaspoon Cinnamon
and 1 Teaspoon Granulated Sweetener like
Maple Sugar.
Directions:
Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Heat a frying pan on medium heat and melt a small bit Butter or Coconut Oil for in the pan. Use Measuring Cup or Soup Ladle to scoop out some batter. Remember, this batter will be VERY runny, like really thin Pancake Batter. Pour it into the pan to coat a thin layer or whatever desired thickness in the bottom of the pan and fry until golden brown, 3-5 minutes per side. You will know when they are not cooked enough as they will be very difficult to scoop and flip. If you are having a hard time with this, you may not be cooking on the first side long enough.

I am sure you can do so many things with this recipe and I would love to hear what some of you try, please post in the comments and share.
Update: I recently made a Coconut Free, Dairy Free Sweet Version of these.
1 Cup Tapioca Flour
1 Cup Water
6 Tablespoons Almond Flour
1 Cup Water
6 Tablespoons Almond Flour
1 Egg
Instructions are the same as above.
And they were FANTASTIC! I served them with a variety of things, for instance one was served with Cream Cheese and Cherries for my Brother who is NOT Dairy Free. Another was served spread with Creamy, Sweetened Pecan Butter and I loved it! The Creamy Sweetened Pecan Butter was made by tossing my Sweet Glazed Pecans into a food processor and processing for about 5-10 minutes. However this morning I had one filled with my French Toast Scrambled Eggs and it was a fantastic breakfast.

Great idea! It sounds much easier than rolling out tortilla dough. Thanks for sharing! (Visitor from Healthy2Day Wednesdays)
ReplyDeleteHello Christy,
DeleteOh this is much easier than rolling out Tortilla Dough. Not only that, these are some super sturdy little Tortillas. They can be packed very full and hold up to all sorts of things. I am a huge fan of this recipe and method. One tip though, just make sure you fry them long enough before trying to flip them or they can be a little tricky. Thank you so much for your comment and I do hope you come back and visit my blog again.

I found your blog via the Healthy 2day link-up. This is fabulous. I'm following the GAPS diet and so I have to avoid grains for awhile yet...and this is awesome :) Love and hugs from the ocean shores of CAlifornia, Heather :)
ReplyDeleteHello Heather,
DeleteSo glad you stopped by. I have been Grain Free for about 6 months now and I am considering going on the GAPS Diet. I feel my healing is far from over and perhaps that might help. This recipe is really wonderful and so simple. I sure hope you enjoy them and visit me again. Thank you for commenting.

These are so yummy! I've made a triple batch and they are fabulous. Never going back to normal/gluten free tortillas ever again.
