Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Sweet Potato Tortillas
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Sweet Potatoes. Steam or boil the sweet potatoes for 15–20 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and mash until smooth, then mix in sea salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
  2. Step 2: Combine Ingredients. In a mixing bowl, add the mashed sweet potatoes, gluten-free sourdough starter (or substitute), and psyllium husk. Mix thoroughly and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Form the Dough. Incorporate arrowroot flour and baking powder (if using) into the mixture and gently knead until a soft dough forms.
  4. Step 4: Cook the Tortillas. Preheat a non-stick skillet and divide the dough into 5 balls. Roll each ball out between parchment paper into thin circles, cooking each for 30–45 seconds on each side.
  5. Step 5: Enjoy Your Tortillas. Transfer the warm tortillas to a plate and cover. Fill them with your favorite ingredients or serve as sides.
