This gluten-free tortilla wrap recipe is as easy as it can be. Only two ingredients and a simple process to have your tortillas ready in a few minutes. No xanthan gum or commercial blends of flour involved, just rice flour and water.
These vegan dairy-free wraps are ideal to make burritos or to wrap up for a quesadilla.
This tortilla / gluten-free wrap is really elastic and perfect to wrap your burritos. The best way to cooke them is to dry fry each tortilla one minute per side, then wrap your burritos and re-heat on the skillet again for a few minutes.
Gluten-free, dairy-free tortilla step by step notes
When you first mix the flour with the boiling water, don’t worry too much about the lumps. They are totally normal and will disappear when you will knead the dough by hand right after .
Dust well the surface and the rolling pin before rolling out the dough. Help yourself with a dough scraper. Otherwise, you can roll the tortilla between two sheets of parchment paper.
Can I freeze these rice tortillas?
Absolutely, better to do it before cooking them! My advice is to roll them out, let them cool down and freeze them by placing a piece parchment paper between each one and the other. Then you can defrost and cook them in the pan as normal!

All I got was a sticky mess. I tried kneading with more flour, then rolling with oiled parchment. The “dough” just stuck permanently to the parchment and I threw it out.
I saved the last two balls and just flattened them as much as I could by hand with flour and put the on the flat top, turning dozens of times until mostly cooked through. They weren’t horrible but definitely not tortillas or wraps. Help!
Hi Ben, I’m sorry to hear this. Was the water boiling hot? If yes, then the only reason can be the type of rice flour you used. Make sure to use a regular rice flour or brown rice flour (not super fine, not glutinous rice flour, not rice starch).

When making these do you have to keep the pan on the hob whilst stirring in the flour? As I added flour to boiling water off the heat and ended up with a sloppy wet mess. I tried adding more rice flour but it was still very sticky.
Yes it’s better to give the initial stir on the hob, then transfer to knead by hand. It’s ok if it’s sticky, that’s why it must be roll out between two parchment papers. You can refer to this video to see the process: https://www.instagram.com/p/CcOLbgxlq21/
