Instructions

Did you cook these in a dry pan or in a little oil? I cooked in dry pan but they look nothing like yours. Yours look crispy but mine were on the softer side. They were delicious by the way.

These are delicious. Great with steak! I did have to add about 1/4 cup almond flour because I was out of pork rinds. I had just one cup of pork rinds but needed a bit more dry ingredient to make it fryable in the pan. Made 4 tortillas and will definitely keep this recipe to make again due to the amazing flavour. Thanks!

What should I subtitute the cheese with? I don't eat cheese.

You’ll need some type of binder to hold it all together. Maybe a xanthan gum paste with egg of some sort? Good luck!

How are you able to fold the tortillas in the oven? You just mentioned placing the circle on the baking sheet - but how to we fold them in the oven?

Made first batch three months ago and wouldn't stop telling family and friends. No one's believed me and still don't. As a trail runner it's great. Last the whole day at work. Last for all my training runs. Not 5 stars cause recipe burned my pits. After tinkering recipe with more cocunut oil, arrowroot the result is more clumpy version and I'm okay with it. Just rub in with fingers and I'm good. Thank you!!! Grapefruit oil used before. Preparing lemon batch meow. Now just need one for my stank arse.
