2 ingredient Oat Tortillas are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional flour tortillas. These gluten-free oatmeal wraps are vegan, easy to make, inexpensive, unleavened, and pliable. They're perfect for homemade wraps, quesadillas, burritos, and more!
In a high-speed blender, combine rolled oats and water. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
The mixture will be very thin. Let it rest for 20 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the water and thicken slightly.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly oil the pan. Pour about ½ cup of the oat mixture into the pan and rotate it in a circular shape to spread out the batter evenly. Cook for 2 minutes on one side, until golden brown.
Flip the tortilla and cook for 2 minutes on the other side.
Flip the tortilla again and cook for 1 minute on one side. Flip one final time and cook for 1 minute on the other side. This extra cooking time is essential for the tortilla to become soft and airy. Repeat with the rest of the batter.
Notes
*If you use oat flour instead of rolled oats the resting time for the batter should be 10 minutes.
Let the tortillas cool completely before storing. Place them in an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag and store them in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
You can freeze them with parchment paper between each tortilla to prevent sticking, and they will keep for up to 3 months.
Allowing the batter to rest is crucial for the right consistency - don't skip this step.
Lightly oil your pan before cooking each tortilla to prevent sticking.
A non-stick pan is essential to prevent the tortillas from sticking and to ensure even cooking.
Before pouring the batter into the pan, give it a quick stir with a spoon to ensure it's evenly mixed for each tortilla.
Keep the heat at medium to avoid burning the tortillas. If the pan gets too hot, reduce the heat slightly.
Rotate the skillet in a circular motion right after pouring the batter to spread it evenly and achieve a uniform thickness.
For larger tortillas, use ½ cup of batter; for smaller ones, use ⅓ cup or ¼ cup.
The additional cooking time of 1 minute on each side is crucial for the tortillas to become soft, airy, and flexible.
