Low Carb Zucchini Tortillas Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded zucchini
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup grated cheese (mozzarella or cheddar)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Drain Zucchini: Place the shredded zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible to help the tortillas hold together and avoid sogginess.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the drained zucchini with the egg, grated cheese, coconut flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and cohesive.
- Form Tortillas: Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions on the prepared baking sheet. Press each portion into a thin, round shape, mimicking a traditional tortilla shape and thickness.
- Bake: Bake the tortillas in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges turn golden and crispy, indicating they are cooked through and have a pleasant texture.
- Cool: Allow the tortillas to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes after baking to help them set and make them easier to handle or use in recipes.
Notes
- Ensure you squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the zucchini to prevent soggy tortillas.
- Use cheese varieties like mozzarella or cheddar for best melting and flavor results.
- For extra flavor, try adding herbs like cilantro or cumin to the mix.
- These tortillas can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat them in the oven or on a skillet for best texture.
- Adjust thickness depending on preference but note thinner tortillas will be crispier.
