Love of Keto Tacos

Is there anything better than a delicious taco?!? My previous coworkers would agree with me. Anytime we traveled together, Mexican food and specifically tacos, were always on the menu. Since I've been living the low carb life, I mostly just eat taco salads, which are still delicious, but it's nice to be able to have a wrap once in a while. Kto tortilla recipes to the rescue! This one is even better than average since it has no nut flours, is zero carb and also works for the carnivore diet.

This simple recipe allows you to make keto tortillas that use just a few ingredients and tastes like egglife tortilla wraps. I like these better than other options for a couple of reasons. First, they are a great way to get extra protein in your meal. This keto tortilla recipe uses only animal products which to me, is better than using almond or other alternative flours. Most keto tortilla recipes use some kind of nut flour, which adds carbs.

How to Make Egg White Wraps Without Flour

I choose to limit low carb flours as much as I can. Almonds have a lot of oxalates and coconut flour doesn't agree with me (and many people) very well. Because we're only using animal products here, this is also a carnivore tortilla recipe. Check out our carnivore diet food list if you are exploring this way of eating.

Any time you can use a side item rather than just meat to add high quality protein in your diet is a win. It certainly makes the diet seem more varied and the different texture can make it easier to eat than just pure meat for some.

Carnivore Tortilla Recipe

How quickly you can make this low carb tortilla (really it's zero carb!) recipe is crazy. It's really amazing how well egg whites stand in for wheat flour and the gelatin makes the keto tortillas super pliable and strong.  I tried a couple of other variations with arrowroot and cream of tartar, but these were definitely the best and the gelatin keeps them carnivore. However, if you're sticking to “carnivoreish” or if you're keto, you may enjoy adding some flavors to your tortillas. Caraway seed, red pepper flakes, sesame seed or spinach are just a few ideas.

The easiest way to make egg white wraps without flour is to just use this recipe. Here we substitute not only egg white for flour, but we also use gelatin. This combination yields a strong, flexible keto tortilla without using any flour or typical flour substitutes.

How to Use This Keto Tortilla Recipe

Want some traditional shaped taco shells? You can use the carnivore tortillas in taco stand mold or taco bowl mold to shape these for other variations. Just use your favorite oil to fry or put them in the air fryer or oven. They're also a perfect zero carb tortilla and egglife wrap dupe. I actually like the taste of these way better than egglife and they have even fewer ingredients, although egglife wraps are actually very clean.

I get a lot of people coming to the site looking for carnivore recipes. This carnivore diet trend is definitely getting more popular and it's something I've experimented with several times myself. Generally, I would say I've been eating “carnivoreish” for over a year now. I absolutely prioritize protein and on some days that's all I have because I find it difficult to get in the new recommendations of around one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight or per pound of lean mass.

Ingredients for the Carnivore Tortilla

The way this recipe is written, you need just a couple of specialty ingredients. I like to have these on hand since they're great for other low carb bread recipes as well. First you'll need egg white powder. The most economical one I've found is from Bulk Supplements, but any one you like will do. It's also great to have on hand for adding extra protein to shakes. The other item is gelatin, you can find plain, unflavored gelatin next to the jello but since I prefer grass-fed and to keep a greater quantity on hand for baking, I use this one. I also use butter powder, but I've made them without it and they still work fine, they just have a slightly richer flavor with the butter powder for this keto tortilla recipe.

Keto Bread

Carnivore Tortilla Recipe

Keto bread is a challenge, and keto tortillas fall into that category since they're traditionally made with wheat or corn flour. When you use keto flours, they really just doesn't have the same texture as wheat based bread. There is a King Arthur flour I've tried that's “keto” but it does contain wheat, so for those of us avoiding grains, that's out too, which is one of the reasons I love this carnivore tortilla recipe.

One of my other favorite bread substitutes for keto and carnivore diets besides this keto tortilla is the chaffle. It's super easy to make and in its most basic form, only needs two ingredients. However, the chaffle really only works for sandwiches as a bun or eaten as a sweet waffle. That problem is what made me want to create something that could be used more as a wrap. I love a good sandwich, but sometimes you just want some bread that's more like a tortilla.

Copycat Egg Life Wraps

I first got the idea to create this recipe after finally trying egglife wraps. Turns out, this low carb tortilla recipe is a pretty good copycat recipe for the egglife version. They use very simple ingredients, but they're not always easy to find. Once I saw the ingredients, I knew I'd be able to make something similar at home. It took a little bit of trial and error, but they're really pretty simple to make. The most critical part of making these carnivore keto tortillas might be the spreading on the griddle.

If you want to make this carnivore tortilla taste even more like an egglife wrap, consider adding some flavor to your batter. Egglife has flavors like southwest, italian, cinnamon and others. You can add a teaspoon or two of your favorite spices to get the same effect.

How to Cook Keto Tortillas

You'll need a nonstick skillet or griddle for this low carb tortilla recipe. The consistency of the batter will beon the thick side and depending on how you measure your ingredients, you may need to add a little more. I've found the best way is to start with just 1/2 cup of water then add the final 1/4 cup or more to make sure you don't get it too thin. The goal is to make these as thin as possible but you still want them to hold together well when you add your keto taco fillings.

How to Store and Reheat Carnivore Tortillas

Store leftover tortillas in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side. They also freeze well. Layer with parchment paper and store in a freezer bag for up to 3 months.

Keto Noodles

You can also use this keto tortilla recipe to make keto noodles! Instead of cooking the mixture into a round shape, make a large rectangle. Then you'll just roll up your carnivore tortilla sheet and cut into strips with a sharp knife to use as noodles.

frequently asked questions

Can you eat tortillas on the carnivore diet?

Traditional flour and corn tortillas are not carnivore because they are made from plants. However, you can make carnivore tortillas using only animal-based ingredients like egg white powder, gelatin and water. These have zero carbs and contain no grains, nuts or plant-based flours. Our recipe makes tortillas that are flexible enough for tacos and quesadillas while staying fully carnivore compliant.

What are carnivore tortillas made of?

Carnivore tortillas are made from animal-derived ingredients only. This recipe uses egg white powder, unflavored gelatin and water. Some other versions use whole eggs with mozzarella cheese, or blended chicken breast with eggs. The key ingredient that makes them flexible and strong enough to fold without cracking is gelatin, which acts as the binding agent in place of gluten from wheat flour.

How do you keep carnivore tortillas from falling apart?

Gelatin is the key to keeping carnivore tortillas from tearing or cracking. Make sure to let the gelatin fully dissolve in the water before adding the egg white powder. The batter should be thick but spreadable. Cook on medium-high heat and wait until the edges just start to curl before flipping. If your tortillas are too fragile, the batter may be too thin. Add a bit more egg white powder and try again.

Are carnivore tortillas zero carb?

Yes. This carnivore tortilla recipe is effectively zero carb. Egg white powder and gelatin contain trace amounts of protein and virtually no carbohydrates. Each tortilla has about 13 grams of protein, 3 grams of fat and only 1 gram of carbohydrates, making them ideal for both the carnivore diet and keto.

Can you use these carnivore tortillas as noodles?

Yes. Instead of spreading the batter into a round tortilla shape, cook it as a large rectangle on your griddle. Let it cool slightly, then roll it up tightly and cut into strips with a sharp knife. The strips work as low carb noodles for soups, stir fry or pasta dishes. The gelatin gives them enough structure to hold up in broth without dissolving.

What is the difference between carnivore tortillas and egglife wraps?

Egglife wraps are a store-bought egg white wrap that uses similar ingredients to this recipe. Our homemade version uses egg white powder and gelatin, which makes them slightly thicker and more pliable than egglife wraps. The homemade version also has fewer processed ingredients and you can control the thickness and size. Many people find this recipe tastes better than egglife while costing less per tortilla.
