How I Make My Keto Tortillas
Pay attention to every single detail if you want the best result in the end. Here’s how to make keto tortillas.
Firstly, we need to make the Keto tortilla dough, to do this, get a working food processor, turn in almond flour, sea salt, gelatin powder, and psyllium husk powder and process until everything becomes properly mixed.
Add a little bit of water and eggs to the processor and process until the dough forms a ball.
Using a knife, cut the dough into 6 partitions,
The next step would be to shape the tortillas, roll the tortillas in a small ball shape and then get a rolling pin, use the pin to flatten the tortillas into a circle.

Should You Consider Low Carb Corn Tortillas?
Uhm, I did my research and here’s the answer. If you are looking at taking low carb corn tortillas while on keto, you re getting it all wrong.
I discovered that in just one serving of corn tortillas you could be consuming over 20 grams of carbs. If you ask me, that’s too high for just one small serving of corn tortillas.
Storing Keto Tortillas
You might probably not be able to consume all you prepared. You should store your tortillas in a refrigerator, and I recommend that you put parchment paper in between the layers so that they don’t stick.
Putting Keto tortillas in a fridge is the best way to store Keto tortillas.

minutesIngredients
2 large eggs.
1 ¼ cup of Almond flour.
¼ teaspoon of sea salt.
1 tablespoon of gelatin powder.
2 tablespoon of Psyllium husk powder.
2 tablespoon of warm water.
Frying oil.
Directions
- Mix up the ingredients, add the gelatin powder, sea salt, almond flour and Psyllium husk powder in a food processor. If you don’t have them available, you can buy them from a physical store close to you.
- Add your eggs and water to the processor and process till it forms a dough shape. If dry, add a tablespoon of water till the desire dough shape forms.
- The next step is to section out the tortillas, cut them into sections, it can be in 5 or 6 parts.
- Roll each section of the cut tortillas in a small ball.
- Using a rolling pin, roll a circle out of each ball, make sure you roll it between two pieces of parchment paper.
- Place a cooking pan on the fire and add very little oil.
- Place the tortillas one at a time inside the pan and cook each side of the tortilla for about 60 seconds until it is golden in color.
Notes
- I recommend you don’t apply too much oil to the pan, or you might ruin the whole process. Just a little amount of oil would do. Also, do not allow the edges of the tortillas to get too crispy because they’ll break when you are trying to fold them.
- When you want to roll or fold, make sure you do it gently. When the Keto tortillas become stiff, you can use a MicroWave to reheat it.
