WHAT YOU’LL NEED (INGREDIENTS)

The beauty is in the brevity. For perfect Vegan 2-Ingredient Almond Flour Tortillas, you need:

• 1 ½ cups (144g) Fine Blanched Almond Flour: This is non-negotiable. You must use fine, blanched almond flour, not almond meal. The blanched variety (without skins) gives a smoother texture and neutral color, and it binds much better. It’s the only structure we have!
• 6-7 Tablespoons Warm Water: Warm water helps the dough come together smoothly. The exact amount can vary slightly based on your flour’s absorbency.
• A Pinch of Salt (Optional but Recommended): While not essential for structure, a small pinch of salt (about ¼ tsp) dramatically enhances the flavor.

TOOLS YOU’LL WANT

You barely need any equipment: a medium mixing bowl, a spatula, a rolling pin, and a good non-stick skillet or griddle. Parchment paper is essential for rolling, as the dough is delicate. A flat plate or tortilla warmer to keep your stack cozy is helpful.

STEP-BY-STEP: HOW TO MAKE YOUR TORTILLAS

Creating these Vegan 2-Ingredient Almond Flour Tortillas is a quick, satisfying process. Follow these steps for guaranteed success.

MAKE THE DOUGH

Start by placing your fine blanched almond flour (and optional salt) in your mixing bowl. Then, add 6 tablespoons of warm water. Use a spatula to mix until a thick, cohesive dough forms. If it seems dry and crumbly, add the remaining tablespoon of water, one teaspoon at a time, until it comes together into a ball. The dough should be soft and pliable, like Play-Doh.

SHAPE THE TORTILLAS

Divide the dough into 4 equal balls for medium tortillas or 5 for slightly smaller ones. Next, place a ball of dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Using your rolling pin, gently roll from the center outward, rotating the parchment as you go, until you have a thin, 6-7 inch circle. Don’t worry if it’s not perfectly round homemade has charm! The parchment paper prevents sticking without any added flour.

COOK TO PERFECTION

Heat your non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. No oil is needed. Carefully peel the top piece of parchment off your rolled tortilla, then flip the tortilla onto your hand, removing the bottom parchment. Lay it gently in the hot pan. Cook for 45-60 seconds until the top surface looks dry and the bottom has golden speckles. Flip and cook for another 30-45 seconds. You’ll see it puff up slightly. This is a good sign! Transfer to a plate and cover with a towel to keep them soft and pliable as you cook the rest.

TIPS AND TRICKS FOR PERFECT TORTILLAS

Master these simple tips for the best Vegan 2-Ingredient Almond Flour Tortillas.

• First, always use fine blanched almond flour for the right texture.
• Second, roll them thin enough; too thick, and they’ll be more like flatbreads.
• Third, your pan should be properly preheated over medium heat, not too hot, or they’ll burn before cooking through.
• Finally, keep them covered after cooking; this traps steam and ensures they stay soft and flexible for wrapping.

VARIATIONS YOU’LL ACTUALLY TRY

Once you master the basic Vegan 2-Ingredient Almond Flour Tortilla, try these easy twists. For herbed wraps, mix ½ teaspoon of dried oregano or rosemary into the dry flour. For a kick, add a pinch of garlic powder and smoked paprika. To make them 3-Ingredient Almond Flour Tortillas, incorporate 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with the flour for added fiber and a more “whole wheat” color.

MAKE-AHEAD, STORAGE & FREEZING

These tortillas are perfect for meal prep. Let them cool completely, then store them in a sealed zip-top bag or container in the fridge for up to 5 days. To freeze, place parchment paper between each tortilla and put the stack in a freezer bag. They’ll keep for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge or gently reheat from frozen in a skillet.

TROUBLESHOOTING COMMON QUESTIONS

Let’s solve issues fast. If your dough is too sticky, you may have added a touch too much water; knead in a teaspoon more almond flour. If they crack when rolling, the dough is too dry; sprinkle with a few drops of water and knead again. If they tear when flipping, you may be rolling them too thin or not using the parchment paper method for transfer. They firm up as they cool but stay flexible.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Use your fresh Vegan 2-Ingredient Almond Flour Tortillas for everything! Wrap them around breakfast scramble, use them as soft tacos for lunch, or make hearty dinner burritos. They also make fantastic flatbread for dipping in hummus or serving alongside curry.

NUTRITION NOTES (QUICK)

These tortillas are a high-protein, low-carb, and gluten-free alternative. They are naturally grain-free and packed with healthy fats from the almonds. For a lower-calorie option, you can slightly reduce the portion size, as they are very satisfying.

MY STORY: WHY I ADORE THESE TORTILLAS

My journey to these tortillas started out of pure frustration. I needed a quick, clean wrap for my plant-based lunches, and everything in stores disappointed me. On a whim, I mixed almond flour with water, rolled it out, and threw it in a pan. When it puffed up and bent without snapping, I did a little victory dance in my kitchen. Now, this weekly ritual is my favorite form of edible self-care. It’s proof that the simplest things are often the best.

FAQS

Can I use almond meal instead of almond flour?
Unfortunately, no. Almond meal is more coarse and contains the skins, which will give you a gritty, crumbly tortilla that won’t hold together. Fine, blanched almond flour is essential for these 2-Ingredient Almond Flour Tortillas.

Why are my tortillas breaking when I try to wrap them?
This usually means they were either undercooked (needing more time on the pan to set) or they dried out. Keeping them covered with a cloth after cooking is crucial for retaining moisture and flexibility.

Can I make them bigger?
Absolutely! For larger wraps, divide the dough into 3 balls instead of 4 or 5. Just be gentle when rolling and transferring, as the larger, thinner circle is more delicate.
