Coconut Flour Tortillas

Coconut Flour Tortillas

It’s always a good idea to have tortillas on hand. Whether you're making wraps, tacos, or quesadillas, a quality tortilla is the perfect companion. They can be loaded with toppings, or spread with a rich, nutty butter. Whatever your style, if you enjoy eating all of your favorite tortilla-centric recipes, without consuming a ton of fillers and additives, then it's time to make your own — using ingredients you can trust.

Introducing our beloved coconut flour tortilla recipe, a unique twist on a classic. These low carb gluten free wraps are the perfect addition to any meal, snack, or... dessert (think peanut butter with sliced bananas and dark chocolate, all rolled up — yum!)

Why Make Tortillas with Coconut Flour?

Whether you've been on-the-hunt for a paleo tortilla recipe, or a gluten-free recipe with low carbs, these coconut flour tortillas will not disappoint.

Being gluten-free, paleo, and vegetarian, each bite is rich in fiber and MCTs, promoting good digestion and heart health. If you've been trying to cut back on your wheat intake (or are sensitive to gluten), here's why BBF Organic Coconut Flour is an optimal choice:

• Coconut flour is a high source of protein.
• Coconut flour has a lower glycemic index, which supports more stable blood sugar levels. Being high in both fiber and healthy fats, it slows down the release of sugar.
• Studies show that coconut flour can help reduce cholesterol levels.

Aside from the health benefits, coconut flour is also:

• Highly versatile. From cupcakes to zucchini pizza, when you have coconut flour on-hand, the possibilities are endless.
• It's mild in taste, yet adds a unique flavor. This will allow you to inject a subtle tropical flavor into your favorite recipes. When it comes to something like fish tacos, you can't beat the addition of a slight coconut flavor.

In addition to coconut flour, this coconut flour tortilla recipe features BBF Naturally Refined Organic Coconut Oil, the perfect substitute for butter, margarine, or Crisco. This oil offers energy-boosting MCTs and is ideal for anyone following a keto, vegan, paleo, gluten-free, or Mediterranean diet.

MCTs are medium-chain triglycerides which have been shown to offer a wide range of health benefits. From promoting weight loss to fueling your brain, MCT oil is easily absorbed and transported in the body. Research shows that MCTs easily enter your cells without being broken down. This results in an immediate source of energy — and since MCTs can be converted into ketones in your liver, coconut oil is a key addition to any keto diet.
