Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour blend
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (if not included in flour blend) Optional
  • 2/3 cup tapioca starch/flour Plus more for sprinkling
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons virgin coconut oil Melted
  • 3/4 cup warm water Plus more by the drop as necessary

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.
  2. Add melted coconut oil and warm water a little at a time, mixing until you achieve a smooth dough.
  3. Divide the dough into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.
Cooking
  1. With a rolling pin, flatten each dough ball into a thin circle.
  2. Cook on a hot, dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or until they’re lightly browned.
Storage
  1. Stack cooked tortillas with parchment paper in between and store them in an airtight container.

Notes

Mix your dough just enough—too much kneading can make them tough. Use extra tapioca flour for sprinkling to prevent sticking while rolling out. Substitute coconut oil with olive oil for different flavor.
