METRIC - CONVERT TO US CUPS!!!

Instructions

Mix the coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder and cumin in a bowl.
Add the eggs and mix as best as you can. It will look like small dough pebbles.
Pour the boiling water ½ cup (120ml) at a time over the dough and mix with a silicone spatula.
The psyllium and coconut flour will absorb the water as you mix.
Once completely mixed, let the dough sit for a couple of minutes as it's pretty hot to handle.
Separate the dough into 10 balls with your hands. Each ball weighed 75g/2.6 oz for me.
TORTILLA PRESS METHOD
Line the tortilla press with saran wrap. Place a piece of dough in the middle of the tortilla press and press to flatten. Set aside but make sure to add a piece of parchment paper or saran wrap between each tortilla so that they don't stick to one another.
CAST IRON METHOD
Place one ball at a time over a piece of parchment paper and cover with another piece of parchment paper.
Place your heaviest skillet or frying pan ( I used a Lodge cast iron skillet) over the dough ball and press with your weight. You can also twist the skillet, once pressed, left to right like a steering wheel, to expand the dough even more.
This will create thin tortillas, but they will thicken a bit once cooked.
Repeat this step with the 9 other dough balls until you have 9 more tortillas.
ROLLING PIN METHOD
Place one ball at a time over a piece of parchment paper and cover with another piece of parchment paper.
Roll out as best as you can until your have a large tortilla circle. Repeat this step for the rest of the balls.
Heat some oil in a frying pan or skillet, and place the tortillas inside, one at a time. Cook on each side for 30-60 seconds on medium heat, until the crust becomes golden brown. The tortillas will fluff quite high, but will flatten again once cooled.
Once cooked, transfer to a plate to let them cool.
You can then use them as you wish.

Notes

The nutritional information is for ONE TORTILLA.

These can be stored in the fridge for about a week.

You can also freeze them. Thaw them first and then microwave them a few seconds, or reheat them in a frying pan.

Important Notes:

You cannot substitute the psyllium husk powder. You absolutely need it.
Do not leave out the eggs or boiling water.
Make sure you leave the dough for a few minutes after adding the boiling water to sit before rolling them out.
