These 2-ingredient sweet potato tortillas are a simple, healthy, and delicious alternative to traditional tortillas. They’re vegan, oil-free, and perfect for wraps, tacos, or as a base for your favorite toppings. Plus, they’re incredibly easy to make with just sweet potatoes and flour!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of cooked, mashed sweet potato (about 1 large sweet potato)

  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour, spelt flour, or gluten-free flour (adjust as needed)

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Sweet Potato:

    • Start by peeling and chopping the sweet potato into small chunks. Boil or steam the sweet potato pieces until they are soft and easily mashed with a fork (about 15-20 minutes).

    • Drain the sweet potatoes and mash them until smooth. Let the mashed sweet potato cool slightly.

  2. Make the Dough:

    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato with 1 cup of flour. Mix until a dough forms. The dough should be soft but not sticky. If it’s too sticky, add more flour a little at a time until you reach the right consistency.

    • Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for a couple of minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.

  3. Divide the Dough:

    • Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions, depending on the size of tortillas you want. Roll each portion into a ball.

  4. Roll Out the Tortillas:

    • On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll each dough ball into a thin, round tortilla. Aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch. If the dough sticks, sprinkle a little more flour on the surface and rolling pin.

  5. Cook the Tortillas:

    • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, place one tortilla in the skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear. The tortilla may puff up slightly as it cooks.

    • Remove the tortilla from the skillet and place it on a plate covered with a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.

  6. Serve:

    • Your sweet potato tortillas are now ready to serve! Use them as a base for your favorite tacos, wraps, or enjoy them as a simple side.

Tips:

  • Flour Type: You can use whole wheat flour, spelt flour, or gluten-free flour, depending on your preference. The amount of flour needed may vary slightly depending on the type of flour and the moisture content of the sweet potato.

  • Storage: Store any leftover tortillas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them on a skillet before serving.

  • Freezing: These tortillas can be frozen. Place a piece of parchment paper between each tortilla to prevent them from sticking together, and store in a freezer-safe bag for up to a month.
