coconut flour tortillas

on my quest to eat paleo, one of the most difficult things i have come across is a way to eat a "sandwich". wrapping ingredients in lettuce is always an option, but is too messy for my liking. when i came across this recipe for tortillas made from coconut flour, i was anxious to try!

they turned out to be something between a crepe and and pancake, but got the job done! they do have a slight coconut taste. i can't wait to try to make these again!

1/4 cup coconut flour
8 egg whites
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup water

1. whisk all ingredients together
2. heat skillet to medium heat. use 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to coat the pan.
3. put 3 tablespoons of batter into the skillet and swirl around to get a thin layer
4. once edges are golden brown, flip over and cook for 30 more seconds

i cut the recipe in half and it made 3 medium sized tortillas
