Vegan Sweet Potato Tortillas | 2 Ingredients, Oil-Free Recipe

Introduction

These vegan sweet potato tortillas are a simple, healthy twist on traditional tortillas, made with just two ingredients and no oil. Soft, flexible, and naturally sweet, they’re perfect for wraps, tacos, or as a side to your favorite dishes.

Ingredients

• 150 g sweet potato, mashed (3/4 cup)
• 130 g all-purpose flour (1 cup)

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato and the flour. Stir until the mixture is well combined, then use your hands to form a dough ball. The dough should be soft but not too sticky.
2. Step 2: Divide the dough into 5 equal portions. Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll out each portion into a tortilla about 1/2 cm thick. Avoid making them too thin to keep them soft and flexible.
3. Step 3: Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about 1 minute on each side until slightly browned and cooked through.
4. Step 4: Stack the cooked tortillas on a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel while you cook the remaining tortillas. This helps them stay warm and flexible.

Tips & Variations

• For gluten-free tortillas, substitute the all-purpose flour with cassava flour. This keeps them flexible and delicious, as tested successfully by others.

Storage

Store the tortillas in an airtight container or wrapped in foil at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat gently in a warm pan or microwave covered with a damp paper towel to maintain softness.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use other types of flour in this recipe?

Yes, cassava flour works well for a gluten-free version. You can also experiment with other flours, but the texture and flexibility may vary.

How do I know when the tortillas are cooked enough?

Cook each side for about 1 minute or until you see light brown spots and the tortilla feels cooked through but still flexible when cooled slightly.
