HOMEMADE SPELT FLOUR TORTILLA RECIPE

Yes, you can easily make your own healthy tortillas. They can be low in gluten too and easy to digest. It is definitely so much better than any store-bought tortilla !

Ingredients
 

  • 200 g spelt flour
  • 150 g coconut yogurt, , soya yogurt (or dairy yogurt)
  • 3 pinches Himalayan salt + fresh ground pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1-2 pinches dried thyme , or fresh thyme
  • 2 tbsp water
  • Extra flour to dusting

Instructions
 

  • Pour 200 g of spelt flour into a mixing bowl. Add the coconut yogurt, salt, olive oil, thyme and pepper. Using a wooden spoon (or spatula), mix it well together.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of water first and mix it again. Add another tablespoon of water and use your hands to mix well until you have a slightly sticky dough.
  • Next, gently knead the dough by hand for about 30 seconds, either within the bowl or on a lightly floured surface to prevent sticking.
  • Let the dough rest for 15 to 30 minutes (cover the bowl with a kitchen towel).
  • Then, divide the dough into 4 equals part.
  • Lightly dust your work surface with extra spelt flour. Gently flatten a dough ball with your hands. Then, using a rolling pin, carefully roll it into a round tortilla, rotating it frequently to prevent sticking. Add a small amount of flour as needed.
  • Heat a non-sticky skillet over medium heat. Cook the tortilla for about 45 seconds on each side (or until you see air bubbles forming). Repeat it for the 3 other.
  • Tip : keep them in the oven (50C fan), while you finish the filling and serve it warm.
