Ingredients
Units
Scale
-
For the Dough
- 2 cups sweet potato puree (about 4 medium sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed)
- 2 cups gluten-free oat flour or ground oats, plus extra for rolling
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
-
For Cooking
- Avocado oil or ghee, for spritzing the skillet
Instructions
- Prepare the Sweet Potatoes – Bake the sweet potatoes at 400°F (200°C) for about 45 minutes or until they are easily pierced with a fork. Let them cool, then peel and mash thoroughly into a smooth puree.
- Make the Dough – In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato puree with oat flour and sea salt. Mix and knead the mixture using your hands until it forms a cohesive dough. If the dough is too wet or sticky, add up to a tablespoon more oat flour.
- Rest the Dough – Allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes. This helps the flour hydrate and makes rolling easier.
- Shape the Tortillas – Transfer the dough onto a clean work surface. Roll into a log and slice into 20 even pieces. Take each piece, sprinkle lightly with oat flour, and roll out to form a thin tortilla.
- Cook the Tortillas – Heat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly spritz with avocado oil or ghee. Cook each tortilla for 1–2 minutes per side, until you see some brown spots and the tortilla is cooked through but still flexible.
- Keep Tortillas Warm – Stack cooked tortillas and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm and soft until ready to serve. Enjoy them fresh!
Notes
- You can make sweet potato puree ahead of time and refrigerate until needed.
- If you don’t have oat flour, simply blend rolled oats in a blender or food processor until fine.
- For extra flavor, add spices such as cumin or smoked paprika to the dough.
- Tortillas are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be reheated in a skillet or microwave.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
