Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
    • 1/16 teaspoon baking powder
    • 2 egg whites (or, 3 tablespoons egg whites)
    • 2 tablespoons water or coconut milk*
    • 1/2 TB Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions

Mix the coconut flour and baking powder with the water (or milk) and egg whites. Whisk or blend until all lumps disappear (I usually mix, then wait a couple of minutes and mix again).
Pour all the batter on a heated pan greased with olive oil (grease well). Pour batter in center of pan. Tilt the pan around to spread the batter into a large circle, almost covering the entire bottom of the pan.
Be very careful with this part: wait until the edges are brown on the side of the tortilla, or carefully circle spatula around the bottom of tortilla until safe to flip. Once safe, flip the tortilla and cook for about 30 seconds on the other side.
Fill with cream, berries, enchilada filling - anything you like!
These are thin and delicate. Use them for low-carb enchiladas, sandwich wraps, or anything you can think of!

    I multiplied the recipe by 4, but I didn't have enough egg whites, so I only used 4 egg whites instead of 8. They came out too puffy and eggy, more like crepes. I'm going to try them again with 0.5 egg whites per tortilla and perhaps reduce the baking soda a bit too. - 10/13/11

    Very Good
    This worked very well as a substitute for a tortilla as it wrapped quite nicely without breaking. It is a little puffier & could be used as a crepe as well. Versatile & not heavy tasting. - 3/3/14
