Keto Flatbread with Coconut Flour

An easy keto low-carb flatbread recipe that can be used as pita bread for keto lunch or low-carb wraps for taco nights.

📝 Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Whole Psyllium Husk
• 1/2 cup Coconut Flour (fine, fresh, no lumps)
• 1 cup Lukewarm Water
• 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1/4 teaspoons Baking Soda
• 1/4 teaspoons Salt (- optional)
• 1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1--- Make the dough ---
2. 2In a medium mixing bowl, combine the psyllium husk and coconut flour (if lumps are in your flour, use a fork to smash them before measuring the flour, the amount must be precise).
3. 3Add in the lukewarm water (I used tap water about 40°C/100°F bath temperature), olive oil, baking soda and salt. Give a good stir with a spatula, then use your hands to knead the dough.
4. 4Knead for 1 minute. The dough is moist, and it gets softer and slightly dryer as you go. It should come together easily to form a dough, as in my picture. If it is too sticky, add more husk, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, knead for 30 sec and see how it goes. The dough will always be a bit moist, but it shouldn't stick to your hands at all. It must come together as a dough.
5. 5Set aside 10 minute in the mixing bowl.
6. 6Now the dough must be soft, elastic, and hold well together. It's ready to roll.
7. 7--- Roll and shape the flatbread ---
8. 8Cut the dough into 4 even pieces, roll each piece into a small ball.
9. 9Place one of the dough balls between two parchment paper pieces, press the ball with the palm of your hands to stick it to the paper, and start rolling with a rolling pin as thin as you like your bread. My bread dough is 8 inches in diameter, and I made 6 keto flatbreads with this recipe.
10. 10Unpeel the first layer of parchment paper from your flatbread. Use a lid to cut out round flatbread. Keep the outside dough to reform a ball and roll more flatbread - that is how I make 2 extra flatbreads from the 4 balls above!
11. 11--- Cook in non stick pan ---
12. 12Warm a non-stick Tefal crepe or pancake pan under medium/high heat- or use any non-stick pan of your choice, the one you would use for your pancakes.
13. 13Add one teaspoon of olive oil or vegetable oil of your choice onto a piece of absorbent paper. Rub the surface of the pan to make sure it is lightly oiled. Don't leave any drops of oil, or the bread will fry!
14. 14Flip over the flatbread on the hot pan and peel off carefully the last piece of parchment paper.
15. 15Cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side, flip over using a spatula and cook for 1-2 more minutes on the other side.
16. 16Cool the flatbread down on a plate and use it as a sandwich wrap later or enjoy hot as a side dish. I recommend a drizzle of olive oil, crushed garlic, and herbs before serving! (optional but delicious).
17. 17Repeat the rolling, cooking for the next 3 keto flatbread. Make sure you rub the oiled absorbent paper onto the saucepan each time to prevent the bread from sticking to the pan.
18. 18Store in the pantry in an airtight box or on a plate covered with plastic wrap to keep them soft for up to 3 days.
19. 19Rewarm in the same pan, or if you want to give them a little crisp, rewarm in the hot oven on a baking sheet for 1-2 minutes at 300F/150C.
