Ingredients

• 2 cups part-skim grated mozzarella cheese
• 3/4 cup almond flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

• Preheat oven to 375º F. Cut 5 pieces of parchment about 14 inches long. Have a rolling pin and 2 pizza pans or cookie sheets available. Prepare a double boiler. A pot partially filled with water with a mixing bowl that fits on top works well for this purpose. Over high heat, bring the water in the pot to a simmer, then turn heat to low. In the bowl part of the double boiler, add the cheese, almond flour and salt. Using caution to not to get burned by the steam, place the bowl over the pot of simmering water. I use a silicone mitten to hold the bowl. Stir ingredients constantly. As the cheese melts, the ingredients will start to develop a doughy appearance. When it starts to hold together in a ball, turn it out onto a piece of parchment paper. While the dough is hot, but not hot enough to burn your hands, kneed the dough to completely mix the ingredients. Divide the dough into 4 equal sections. Form one section into a ball and place on a piece of parchment paper. Pat into a disk shape, then cover with another piece of parchment. Using the rolling pin, roll into about a 9 inch circle. You may need to turn the dough and straighten the parchment if it wrinkles. Remove the top piece of parchment and place the bottom piece of parchment containing the dough on a pan. Set aside. Repeat for the second ball of dough. Place the two tortillas on the pans in the oven. Bake for 5-7 minutes or until the outside edges just begin to brown. Watch them carefully as it is easy to burn them. While the first two tortillas are baking, roll out the third and fourth tortillas the same way as the first two. When the first tortillas are finished baking, Remove them from oven and slide them onto a cooling rack. Place the last two tortillas on the empty pans and bake for 5-7 minutes. Fill tortillas with filling of choice while they are slightly warm for best results.
