This gluten free tortilla recipe is SO easy to make! They’re soft, pliable, vegan-friendly and loaded with healthy flax seed, and sun dried tomatoes!
Weekday friends! How was your weekend?
Mine was full of cocktails, laughs and general good times because my brother and sister in law spent it at our place.
But, don’t worry, the laughs and general good times were NADA compared to what I have with you. Ya’ll hold the special place in my <3.
Insert “awwww-that’s-so-touching-and-adorable” moment HERE.
Now that your inner person who likes to be friends with random internet girls, that make food and take photos of said food, but doesn’t like to admit to enjoying time spent with random-girl-from-internet-land (that’s me) is feeling smiley and good, can I touch your taste buds?
Actually. Not touch. More, like, reach through the screen and GRAB THEM BY THEIR FACES AND SHAKE THEM AROUND.
Not in an angry way though. A tender, loving, I-just-want-you-to-eat-delicious-food kind of internet-friend-way.
You understand.
You GUYS. We’re making our own TORTILLAS. Like, with our own hands and a rolling pin and HEALTH.
In fact, the tortillas are paleo and vegan friendly and they’re good for your guts because they have ALL the flax seed. And Google told me that was ULTRA awesome for the inside-workings of you, so we’re basicallllly making roll-able superheroes that you fill with whatever your tummy desires.
I don’t know where I get these things.
Before we move further, I need you to do something for me. I need you to wipe that jaded-by-the-easiness-of-grocery-store-tortilla-buying judgmental look off your face. I KNOW you think that making your own tortillas is WAY beyond your skills. Heck, maybe you even burn toast.
Sidenote: I killed a cactus once, so we’re even in the failing-at-life-category.
RIP Pokey (that was its name.)
How-EV-er, they are MUCH easier than you think. Especially since I made you an uber-easy-to-follow video in the new Chez FFF! WOOOT.
I thought about making you un-flavored tortillas, but only bland, boring humans do that. Here in this little piece of the interwebz, that is just not acceptable.
Enter the sun-dried tomato. You should also note that I originally typed “robust sun-dried tomato, “ but immediately backspaced it out. I am just not that person who can use the word “robust” without giggling.
Hi. I’m 5.
ANYWAY.
I know you’re just itching to get your tasty-tomatolicious-tortilla on BEFORE lunch, but I have one parting word of wisdom for you:
Be kind to yourself.
Circles are REALLY hard to roll.
Not that I know all about misshapen, awkward tortillas or anything.

Gluten Free Tortilla Recipe with Sun Dried Tomatoes
Perfect for a quick lunch!
Ingredients
- 2 Cups + 1 Tbsp Flax meal divided
- 1 Cup Hot water
- 1 1/8 tsp Salt
- Pepper
- 1/2 Cup Roughly chopped sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil tightly packed (115 g)
- 4 1/2 Tbsp Coconut flour
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Olive oil from tomatoes.
Instructions
- In a small food processor (mine is 3 cups) blend 1/4 Cup + 2 Tbsp flax meal with the water, salt, sun-dried tomatoes and a few good twists of pepper until the mixture thickens and the tomatoes are broken down. You'll need the stop the food processor and scrape down the sides a few times. Let stand for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, place the remaining flax meal, coconut flour, Italian seasoning and olive oil. Add the tomato/water/flax mixture (it should be thick and gloopy by now) and stir until the dough starts to come together.
- Knead the dough in the bowl for 3 minutes. It will start off quite sticky, but should become firmer as you knead it. Divide the dough into 10 equal balls.
- Place one ball between 2 sheets of parchment paper and roll out. You want them just under 1/4 inch thick. Be careful not to roll the edges out too much or they'll crack. Repeat with remaining balls.
- Lightly oil a large frying pan and heat it to medium heat. Cook one tortilla until it JUST begins to brown, about 20-30 seconds. Flip and cook an additional 20-30 seconds.* Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- DEVOUR.
Recipe Notes
*You can cook these longer if you like your tortilla crunchy, but then they will not be as soft and "bendable."
Tortillas are more delicate than a traditional tortilla, so you do need to be careful not to stuff them too full. Alternately, you could divide the dough into only 8 balls and make slightly thicker tortillas, if you like them stuffed.
Store tortillas in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

June 15, 2015 at 9:01 amTaylor, you can totally steal my tastebuds right from my tongue and shake them up anytime you want. As long as you are whipping them into shape with something this delicious! 🙂 Love homemade tortillas and Love sundried tomatoes.. so these circular beauties are EVERYTHING. Yum! Totally making a cocktail as I pretend to roll perfect circles of these tortillas (<—- Because oblong shapes count as circles, right??). Cheers (literally) and thanks for the giggles. You are one funny chicka.

Dani @ DaniCaliforniaCooks says
June 15, 2015 at 3:49 pmFinding good, pliable gluten free wraps is the bane of my (cooking) existance! I never thought about making my own – this is awesome.
Taylor Kiser says
June 16, 2015 at 6:12 amRIGHT! Sometimes you just gotta do it yourself 🙂 Thanks Dani!
Cassie Tran says

Lisa @ Healthy Nibbles & Bits says
June 15, 2015 at 10:34 pmOh my gosh, homemade tortillas!! They sound so perfect — love the touch of sun-dried tomatoes you added in here!
Taylor Kiser says
June 16, 2015 at 6:12 amThank you Lisa!
Iris says
June 16, 2015 at 2:55 amThese look amazing.. EXCEPT for the sun-dried tomato part, as I don’t eat night-shade veggies. Any thoughts on a substitute OR will you post “the plain old ordinary” tortilla recipe soon??
Thanks for all you share.
Taylor Kiser says
June 16, 2015 at 6:12 amUnfortunately, you need the tomatoes as they act as a binder in the recipe…and I don’t have a plain tortilla recipe coming, I am sorry! You could TRY them with some more flax perhaps? I just can’t guarantee they will work, or taste good! Again, so sorry!
Joanne says
June 16, 2015 at 4:33 amGirl, you can touch my taste buds ANYDAY. And EVERYDAY. Because WHOA to these tortillas…you can practically see the flavor jumping off the screen!
Taylor Kiser says

Sam @ PancakeWarriors says
June 16, 2015 at 9:19 amI have never made tortillas at home but that absolutely has to change – these seem pretty easy (except for the rolling part) and super healthy!! Love sundried tomatoes! Thanks so much for sharing!
Taylor Kiser says
June 16, 2015 at 2:53 pmThey are SO easy (minus rolling perfect circles) you totally need to try it – and please let me know if you do! Thanks Sam!
Sarah | Well and Full says
June 16, 2015 at 9:28 amThese look absolutely fantastic! I bet these wraps would taste amazing with a bit of chipotle pepper in the dough 🙂
Taylor Kiser says
June 16, 2015 at 2:53 pmOhhhh that would add some yummy spice fo sho! Thanks Sarah!
Chelsea @chelseasmessyapron says
June 16, 2015 at 9:44 amMy sister (gluten intolerant) was JUST saying how she misses sundried tortillas and has not been able to find a good recipe for them. SO excited to send her this 🙂 And of course pinned! Gorgeous!!

Katalina @ Peas and Peonies says
June 16, 2015 at 10:46 amoh my these look great, I love tortillas so much, but the store bought ones have an endless list of ingredients, these look so perfect and the sun dried tomatoes flavor sounds amazing.
Taylor Kiser says
June 16, 2015 at 2:52 pmI KNOW RIGHT? SO many things in there – thanks Katalina!

Taylor Kiser says
June 21, 2015 at 3:45 pmI did! I am glad it’s not just me 😉 Thanks Marie!
Lesley says
June 22, 2015 at 12:42 pmThese look wonderful!! Do you think these would work with a different gluten free flour? Can’t have coconut, but I really want to make these.
Taylor Kiser says
June 22, 2015 at 3:13 pmUnfortunately, Coconut flour is SO SO different than any other gluten free flour, that I really can’t say, as the recipe wasn’t tested any other way. I am sure SOMETHING would work, I just really can’t tell you the amount you would need to use, but it definitely would need to be more, since coconut flour is VERY absorbent. I also can’t speak to how it would taste. Sorry that is SO not helpful! let me know if you play with it!
