Description

These One Ingredient Black Bean Tortillas are a simple, healthy, and gluten-free alternative to traditional tortillas. Made solely from black beans, they are easy to prepare and perfect for anyone looking to reduce carbs or add more plant-based protein to their meals.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 can black beans (about 15 ounces)


Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse black beans. Open the can of black beans, drain the liquid, and rinse the beans thoroughly under cold water to remove excess sodium and canning liquid.
  2. Blend black beans. Place the rinsed black beans in a food processor and blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no large bean chunks.
  3. Form tortillas. Divide the blended black bean mixture into 4 equal portions. Using your hands or a flat surface, flatten each portion into a thin, round tortilla shape approximately 6-7 inches in diameter.
  4. Cook tortillas on skillet. Heat a dry skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Place each flattened tortilla on the hot skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is firm and slightly browned.

Notes

  • Ensure the skillet is hot before placing the tortillas to prevent sticking.
  • You can add spices like cumin or chili powder to the bean mixture for extra flavor if desired.
  • These tortillas are fragile compared to traditional flour tortillas, so handle gently when flipping.
  • Serve immediately or keep warm in a clean kitchen towel.
