Sweet Potato Tortillas
Looking for something different than your ordinary tortilla? You have come to the right place. These sweet potato tortillas are sure to knock your socks off!
These are so easy to make. With only two ingredients, sweet potatoes and gluten free flour, you can’t get any easier than that.
Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite ways to get complex carbs in. They are known to promote gut health, as they contain soluble and insoluble fiber as well as antioxidants. I recommend checking out this article, as it dives deeper on how the fiber from sweet potatoes can benefit your digestion and help manage diabetes.
Also, Vitamin A!! Sweet potatoes are hearty with beta-carotene and Vitamin A, which is critical to maintaining a healthy gut lining, and provide many other benefits.
I love making these sweet potato tortillas and storing them in the fridge for the next day or so, as well. I like to pop them in the air fryer for about 3 minutes at 375 degrees and they taste like a sweet potato version of naan bread! Soooo good and definitely worth a try.
As this recipe is simple to execute, I recommend getting this Reusable Microwave Potato Bag. It makes it super easy to bake a potato and can also be used to cook other foods like corn on the cob. Otherwise, my other go-to way to bake a potato quickly is to poke some holes throughout the tater, wrap it in a damp paper towel, and microwave for ~6 minutes. I also highly recommend using either of these brands for the gluten free 1-to-1 baking flour: Bob’s Red Mill and King Arthur are my favorites!
Another favorite of mine that I use to mix this recipe’s dough is the Ninja Foodi Power Blender & Processor System. This 3-in-1 mixer works perfectly for mixing dough and is also a blender and a food processor. I’ve raved about this product before and still believe everyone should look into it, especially if you are in the market for a new blender. Please note that I do make commission if any action is taken through my link.
When you are in the mood for something a bit sweeter than your ordinary tortillas/wraps, these are sure to hit the spot! Be sure to incorporate them into your favorite recipes and let me know how you like them. As always, enjoy! 🙂
