Keto Microwave Tortilla - 90 Seconds or Less and only 1.1g Net Carbs

[@SeriousKeto]

One thing I forgot to mention in the FAQ is "can you substitute anything for the psyllium husk?" The answer is, "vital wheat gluten, maybe...". I tried subbing in 1 tablespoon of vital wheat gluten for the 1 tablespoon of psyllium husk. The results were pretty chewy, but no flavor of psyllium husk. So, if you are put off by the flavor of psyllium husk, I'd recommend trying 1/2 TB of VWG. Also, I found that you can add up to 1 tsp of cheddar powder to give these a nice flavor without making the batter too thick. Finally, if you have any lumps or ridges on your tortilla after it cooks, you can pat those down with your fingertips while it's still warm. I don't recall if I mentioned that in the video.

I cannot comment directly to YT videos, but I can reply to someone else's, so thanks for this comment. As a Milwaukee resident, I want to share a relatively new resource that you, as a Waukesha resident, might not be aware of: the grocery store, Cermak, imported from Chicago is located on Miller Park Way, not far from the freeway's ball park exit. They specialize in imports from various cultural cuisines, and that branch has a tortilla kitchen that makes the most-delicious tortillas I have tasted. Yes, they are not keto-approved, but I still use them as an occasional 'cheat' food. They also have an imported olive bar near the deli, excellent sausages, and a superior produce department that features unadvertised, well-priced vegetables, berries, and fruit. The Barkley location does not have the freshly-made (often, still warm) tortillas, but they do stock 2-dozen packages from the larger MPWay store.

Steve, I just discovered that this tortilla recipe actually lowers my blood sugar. I am a type 2 diabetic and have trouble with high morning blood sugars. This morning I ate one of these tortillas with two eggs and some cheese as the filling. My blood sugar dropped from 133 to 117 in one hour and to 105 in two hours. For kicks, I ate another tortilla at lunch. My blood sugar started at 119 and in one hour it was 94. These tortillas work better than metformin!

[@SeriousKeto]

Wow, that's awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@rikcrampton]

@@SeriousKeto I am hooked! My fasting blood sugar was 20 points lower this morning! My blood sugar was 125 after lifting weights this morning. I ate my morning burrito and two hours later my blood sugar is 93. I never have numbers this low in the morning! After doing a bit of research, I am convinced the whey protein causes my pancreas to produce more insulin than it normally does. It appears the extra fiber helps with fasting glucose.

[@theRealJohnErtel]

Probably the psyllium husk...

[@joellenbroetzmann9053]

I just read this. That is so fantastic!

[@debbies8476]

I can't wait to give it a try!

[@nunyas]

I just made one and used 1/2 tblsp each of lupin and vital wheat gluten. I used 1 tblsp almond flour and 1/2 tblsp of vanilla whey protein. I put mine on parchment paper and microwaved. Once out, I added spices and fried it lightly on stovetop in lightly buttered pan. Not bad! I think they would be best for enchiladas but as a quick lunch or breakfast they would be ok. Ok, I must add- I just made one for hubby and added 1/2 tblsp cheddar cheese powder. Half and half instead of HWC.after frying it lightly I added leftover taco filling and added avocado, mexi mix cheese, green onions and sour cream. He loved it!

[@deanablythe9394]

How did it detach from the parchment paper?

[@Puglover130]

Does the vanilla come through because I only have vanilla / eggnog protein powder at the moment. If it does I can go to the bulk store and just get a bit of unflavoured.

[@NuriannaGypsyArts]

My boyfriend-in-law is a new diabetic. For a year now we have all been learning how his body works now. Covid helped, because we stayed home and cooked there was less processed food. You Tube has helped us find recipies and channels that we love. Yours very quickly became one of our favorites. Because of your Chaffles we have purchased a mini waffle maker and I have taken your basic recipe and tweaked it in a variety of savory and sweet options. French toast is bread-less and tasty! Thank you for your ability to explain how the Keto works with the body. We are getting most of my bf-in-law's days under 60 carbs over the 3 meals. Thank you!

[@SeriousKeto]

Thank you so much for sharing that. I can't tell you how much that just boosted my mood. 🙂

[@susansmith7287]

These are the best and very easy tortillas to make. I made them and he decided he wanted to fry his. He fried them in some olive oil and salted them. They came out nice and crispy with great texture. The strange thing is that fried up in the olive oil, these tortillas had a corn flavor.

[@SeriousKeto]

Glad you like them!

[@Dana-45]

Hey Steve, I dont know if you still get notifications of new comments, and I haven't seen if anyone had mentioned this in the comments section, but I used pork rind powder in place of the almond flour, to cut down the carbs a little further, and it worked out perfect for me! I didn't notice any change in flexibility or durability, and the flavor was still right on schedule. I LOVE everything about this tortilla! Being half mexican, I do need to wrap things in thin flat bread from time to time, and this recipe has revolutionized my keto diet, and made breakfast not stupid anymore. Thank you so much for this recipe!!

[@SeriousKeto]

I just did pork rind powder this morning. 👍🏻

[@Dana-45]

I am super excited about these tortillas, and now I'm happy that they're almost carnivore, and still amazing!! I applaud the work you do, thank you for everything sir

[@SeriousKeto]

I haven't found a carnivore replacement for the psyllium husk. It's possible that beef gelatin might work, but I've done about all of the experiments I can handle on this recipe.

[@Dana-45]

Hahahaha! Yeah I imagine making 50 different versions of the same recipe would wear a guy out. I'm good with the psyllium husks not being carnivore, I figure just a tablespoon shouldn't cause any major worries. Plus I'm not on carnivore anyway

Dinner tonight, y'all! I just got done eating my first 90 second microwave tortilla. It was with turkey and cheese. Delicious and so so easy. Well done Serious Keto. Well done. Sandwiches has now returned to my lunch menu. Thank you.

[@toddshook1765]

I made a post couple years ago and had to revisit this recipe. Need to get back into a better keto lifestyle. I did as instructed but ran out of heavy cream so used keto mayo with a touch of water and worked! My plate 6” so tortilla was about 1/4 “ thick. Then used our larger plate 7” and thinned out for nice wrap. Then thicker one I can use for mini pizza. Thank again for all your work.

[@rebeccabelnap3849]

I'm laughing my head off right now. I worked to hard searching for a whey protein isolate that was unflavored so it would be a savory tortilla instead of vanilla or chocolate. But I didn't look at the psyllium husk at all and it's orange flavored! I cooked them on a plate with plastic wrap and it worked great. Enjoying my very orange flavored tortillas.

[@teresamiller1485]

[@themacocko6311]

That would be my luck 🤣. Maybe smearing on some sweetened cream cheese might compliment the orange😁

[@krazykiwi03]

In case anyone wants a smaller taco, I did split this into half. I had to microwave at 50% power for 60 seconds. Kind of like a street style taco. I also tried subbing 46g of egg whites (about the weight of one whole egg) and it also worked. color looked better with whole egg, but tasted fine with just egg whites too.

[@SeriousKeto]

Thanks for sharing!

[@dabeavs1987]

[@brutusmaximus44]

I think you just changed my life with the Maria Emmerichs "refried beans". I've been wanting to make a more filling burrito than just a lot of taco meat and cheese and this sounds awesome.

[@everising4999]

That’s exactly what I was thinking when I saw this tortilla!!! The original mock refried beans recipe years ago was by someone else and made with zucchini but everything else is the same. I can’t do eggplant so I make the zucchini ones. They freeze really well too so I make up batches in one cup containers.

[@randyhouston1644]

Thanks for finding this. I followed it exactly and found it a little bland and thick. Next time I added a 1/4 tsp of salt (kosher) and a tsp extra of cream and lightly fried a thinner version in a little bacon grease. That worked better for me.

[@joannepitre723]

You Tube wouldn't let me comment earlier when I watched this, but that's okay cause it gave me a chance to try it out first. This is a real game changer Steve. Loved it, and so quick to make. It took exactly 60 seconds in my microwave. It was a tiny bit thick in the middle, so next time I will tilt the plate to even out the tortilla. I'm so happy because I can't find low carb tortillas in my city, now I don't have to look anymore. One happy camper in Canada.....thanks so much. By the way, the tortilla released just fine, no prying or anything, mind you it didn't slip off the plate, but not hard to release at all.

[@AllisonReece]

Great FAQ Section! Steve, you really put a lot of work covering all the questions and alternative baking and substitutions questions we viewers would ask. Even that part is a job. So far, I've been happy with the Egg Life tortillas from Walmart that are zero carbs and come in different favors, but I'd like to try these. I'm not a big bread/ flour lover, but I sure do miss tacos and quesadillas. I think we stay on our low carb lifestyle better when we can substitute our favorites with healthier options, than just avoiding those meals. Avoidance makes me break down and eat what it's healthy for me. These healthier version of the foods we love, allows me to enjoy food again and relax knowing it's okay!

[@SeriousKeto]

I like the EggLife too (review coming soon of all 4 flavors). But they still work out to about 80 cents each. I feel like these gotta be cheaper. Plus, the texture is SO MUCH like a masa tortilla.

[@RobCLynch]

It's uncanny how close my Keto journey was to yours. I was 21 stone in June 2020 and in ten months, I lost 103 pounds. Great recipe - also consider mixing the same ingredients into a mug and microwave for 2 minutes - it makes a sort of muffin/cake thing, which can be sliced into two halves and browned on a frying pan. I then melt cheese over both halves. Thanks for uploading this.

I went with 1 tsp of Psyllium husk fiber instead of the husks and two TB of almond flour without the whey protein because it's what I have on hand. It still worked for my greatest tortilla desperation but yours looks better. I'll have to get the whey protein for sure.

[@SeriousKeto]

Hi Steve. I made this twice, 1st with coconut flour in place of almond (didn't realize I was out), that turned out poorly. 2nd I followed you exact recipe, it was flawless. This is the best recipe I've found so far. It makes the best tortillas. Thank you for sharing it.

This has become my go-to tortilla. The other night we went to a neighborhood party that had a taco truck. My husband got himself two beef tacos and me two chicken tacos. I took one of these microwaved tortillas with me and dropped the chicken mixture of both tacos into it. I gave my husband the taco shells and he had double taco shells on his beef tacos. Mine was just amazing. So delicious, and to me didn't taste at all like I didn't get the tortilla taste. Nothing was missing. These are awesome! Game changer, for sure!

Tried it using very old psyllium, very old CA Gold protein powder. I was amazed!! I did one of my old favs hot ham and cheese on a tortilla. If I had not made it myself I would not have been able to tell the difference. A tiny bit rubbery, but tiny. Another winner!!! Thanks dude. If I had had your recipes when I 1st started low carb about 1973 I would have been Mr. Universe. Back then if I had asked for almond flour in a store they would have laughed at me. Not to mention the tons of good sweeteners we have now. Thanks again!!

[@SeriousKeto]

Glad it worked out for you.

[@Ghotiman2]

Thank you for evaluating different tortilla options. Based on your early research I have been using the La Banderita tortillas for my wrap substitutes (readily available on often on sale). I use the large 10" one in pairs with a mozzarella cheese between as a base for stuffed crust pizza, I use the medium 8" ones as a pita substitute for keto falafels and wraps, and the small Zero street tacos as a holder for everything from sandwiches, tacos, hot dogs and enchilada casserole. I use the 8" and 4" in combination with one on top and the other bottom around a cooked hamburger and fixins and heat in a frying pan to make a Taco bell style crunch wrap. Looking forward to you Tortilla Keto champion Part 4

[@lindaa.3237]

I finally tried this today. My batter was thicker than yours and I had to spread it out with the back of a spoon, but still it worked well. Next time, I'll thin it out a little. I had just about given up on bread substitutes because the bread taste would always overpower the filling. Not so with this one. I really enjoyed the sandwich I made with it. Thanks so much for bringing this to us. I can't wait to make enchiladas!

Awesome! I haven't made enchiladas with this yet, but a number of my viewers have told me that they have and that it worked out great.

[@steelbutterflies]

Translation from the original recipe: Tortilla-empanada ... Argentine Mexican fusion The tortillas: A recipe for 9 tortillas 2 tablespoons almond flour 2 tablespoons zero-carbohydrate protein powder with a neutral taste Half a teaspoon of baking powder A tablespoon of psyllium A little salt A little sweetener is allowed Mix dry and add about 70 ml of cream 38 Mix and add 2 eggs Mix until uniform In a flat plastic plate (well ... those of the kids, from Ikea?) Pour 2 tbsp. Make sure the batter is spread over most of the plate and put in the microwave for 50 seconds. Repeat X 9 I like to fry the tortillas for 10 seconds on each side on an empty pan. It closes them and gives the color of a stunning crepe. For the minced meat: About 500 grams of minced meat Half an onion 3-4 cloves of garlic Paprika, salt, oregano and parsley Canned tomato sauce with as few additives as possible (check that the amount of carbohydrates does not exceed 4 grams of carbohydrate per 100 grams) 3-4 hard-boiled eggs About 10 olives (the eggs and olives are what give me the taste of the empanada for the minced meat ...) Chop the onion and garlic and fry in a pot with olive oil Add the minced meat and cook well. Add spices and tomato sauce. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once ready, cut the eggs and olives and mix with the bolognese.

If you just at home then making in bulk would not be necessary but my thought process is meal prepping for the weak for work. I would not want to make a tortilla every single morning to take to work for my lunch. So lasting 5 days in the fridge is perfect. Okay, So I didn’t have all the ingredients but I substituted ground old fashioned oats for the almond flour, fresh ground flaxseed for the psyllium and 2% milk and it turned out great. I am eating as a breakfast burrito at the moment. Thanks for the recipe.

The thing is, real flour is a magical thing. That one ingredient can take a half dozen or more "keto" ingredients to come close to emulating it. We have to make tradeoffs for keto, but I think this tortilla still comes close for folks. I hope you enjoy it.

@@stonebkkp Yeah, I really miss a chili cheese dog. When summer comes around, I get that itch. I also make a Polish sandwich with a chancake bun, or if I don't want to make the chancake bun, I have a perfectly sized small casserole for the microwave. I split two polish sausages almost all the way through and heat them with the cheese flat across them in the casserole. Then I apply the sauerkraut and if I'm really into authentic taste, it may need a little mustard and caraway (instead of rye bread), but it generally needs to be at least ground up. PS: IMO, the combination of a couple Teton Rivers Ranch 100% grass fed Polish sausages and sauerkraut is a really healthy start, and a healthy cheese makes it a meal (still looking for a good whole raw Swiss, but for now, it's usually havarti.)

Hi Steve, just made it with coconut cream and vital wheat gluten. Bravo!!! Thanks to TJ and low carb dad. 🇳🇮 I found that letting it sit for a minute helped loosen the tortilla, just like loosening a cake out of the pan. You wait a little bit for the tortilla to finish cooking. after the microwave finishes, it will continue cooking 1/3 of the time that it cooked in the microwave). Cakes loosen better from the pan after waiting 5 to 10 minutes We are having burritos tomorrow night. I was starting to get anxious about having to make tortilla dough.

Btw I love your videos and your knowledgeable way in the kitchen. A heads up on this particular product. Lupini's used to be sold back in the day everywhere. The Italians would pickle them and sell them in jars. They have a high allergy profile. So be careful giving this to little kids that won't know how to express that they are experiencing an allergic reaction. And or with guests in your house who you may not be aware might have an issue once they eat this. But this, is probably the most comprehensive answer to making low carb tortillas! I really love this recipe!

I laugh every time I see this video because of how much easier it is now that you gave us the idea of using the silicone rounds (rather than the plate). Even YOU grow and evolve, and it's really helpful for us to see the differences. I have really enjoyed making these, and I like them even better after frying them on each side in olive oil, to give them a browned, toasty exterior (while retaining their durability and elasticity!)

[@davidbutler1825]

@@ivorykeys1566 it is similar to a large, rectangular, silicone baking sheet, but instead is round, 9 inches in diameter, and you would place it on the glass turntable of the microwave. It takes the place of the white plate and the tortillas peel right off!

Well you sir you are a genius! I made two this am using this original recipe (I did watch the other) and they were delicious! We thought it tasted like a mild corn tortilla. That is something since we grew up on some of the best Tex Mex in the world…San Antonio, Texas. Now we have been living in Houston forever! You made our brisket and egg breakfast tacos awesome!

Not just Mexican. It can be used as a wrap for whatever you’d put in a sandwich.

I wonder if we can use parchment paper instead of the plate to *possibly* make it easier... if only I had some whole psyllium husk in my ingredient rack -_-

[@celestesuter1148]

Okay, ionosphere you said no to psyllium husk powder. But it was all I had and I was dreaming of one of these for lunch. It came out a bit thicker batter so I added more cream and had to spread it out on my plate. I added 5 drops of corn bread seasoning. It was still a little doughy in the middle so I put it in a frying pan with a little avo oil just to finish cooking. I topped it with a tbsp of refried beans, taco meat, green chilies, cheese. Removed from pan and added guac and salsa. It’s thick but not chewy. Quite tasty! I think I’ll add cumin to the batter next time and probably try watering it down a bit for thinner batter. I’ll have to get some psyllium husk for another try but I’m not unhappy with this first try! Thanks for a good tasting, easy, low carb tortilla. I’ll probably try a bigger batch so I can use these when I go hiking and keep some in the freezer for even faster lunch.

[@SeriousKeto]

Awesome. I had a viewer tell me that they used 1 tsp of psyllium husk powder (instead of 1 TB) and upped the almond flour by another 1/2 TB and it turned out well.

[@celestesuter1148]

I saw your video months ago but I'm horrible about making comments. I'm more the thumbs up kinda person. But this recipe and all the updates on it have been a real game changer. I've been brought up on beans and tortillas and these fit the bill. They really do remind me of the tortillas we made with masa harina. So now that I found I can eat soybeans and these tortillas, I'm back! Another point about making homemade foods is that I found when buying low carb tortillas, they make me inflamed and gain weight. So, thank you for making this and other wonderful videos. Loved the pogo whisk but to be balanced in my spending (because I love kitchen gadgets) I have to tell myself that I've lived without it so far and I can continue to. But in all honesty, I have it on my Amazon wish list. Maybe my husband will see it and get it for me. I better leave some really good HINTS.😜

Thank you the kind words and I’m glad you’re getting some mileage out of this recipe. 🙂

Finally able to secure whole psyllium husk and silicone rounds today.... to discovered I only had vanilla protein powder. Doh! But I didn't let that stop me and charged ahead anyway. It still worked great! Vanilla flavor made me think of crepe like deserts ....yum! I have a feeling this is going to be a regular in my house and possibilities are limitless.

[@heroclixer]

Runs to the kitchen to try this out. And all I have is Phyllium Husk Powder. So I try something new with what I got. I went with 1 Tbsp of egg white powder. 1/2 Tbsp of xanthum gum and then added heavy cream until about the right consistency. Probably about 3 Tbsp. Poured it on a plate and in the microwave for 90 seconds. I was very impressed with what I got. Going to add some corn flavor extract for my next try.

[@SeriousKeto]

Glad it worked for you!

[@pnwRC.]

From the authors notes, at this point I was only able to prepare them on plastic plates. There is something in porcelain plates that provides a product that sticks to the plate, even though it has been greased before entering the microwave Original recipe called for making 9 tortillas. Here's the original recipe translated. 2 tablespoons zero-carbohydrate protein powder with a neutral taste Half a teaspoon of baking powder Psyllium spoon A little salt A little sweetener is allowed Mix dry and add about 70 ml of cream 38 Mix and add 2 eggs In a flat plastic plate (well ... those of the kids, from Ikea?) Pour 2 tbsp. Make sure the batter is spread over most of the plate and put in the microwave for 50 seconds.

[@stephenpeters3685]

Worked a charm, thank you. I made a couple of changes. Used Hemp seeds (which has a coarse consistency) because I didn't have whey protein isolate in the cupboard. Also my psyllium husk was the powder variety but not superfine. Maybe those changes balanced out because it still turned out well. Also had to add a bit of water and milk probably because I didn't use a proper tablespoon measure and it wasn't runny enough. Added a bit of salt and garlic powder. Needed 150 sec in stages with some checks.

[@Pipsterz]

Thanks Steve! Room temperature eggs also tend to be less eggy tasting. That was from you also I think :) Cheers.

[@bgueberdenteich5206]

That is great !

[@shawnabeals9261]

There are actually good reasons for wanting to make a bunch ahead of time. A pan of enchiladas or other casserole type dishes is my most common reason for doing so. Also tried this on a silicone mat instead of a plate. Worked perfectly. No crustification, no sticking at all. This allowed me to make a much larger tortilla which I've never achieved using dough and a tortilla press even though I have a 10" press. This is great functionality for wraps or burritos. Used 1/2 T oat fiber and 1tsp coconut flour in place of almond flour, reduced psyllium by 3/4 tsp. (so 2-1/4 tsp instead of 1 T) Worked the same as almond flour best I could tell with no other changes. I will be testing these in enchiladas and will post my results. (Tortillas with psyllium usually end up dissolving into a gel in enchiladas). Hoping this will work on enchiladas!

[@SeriousKeto]

My silicone discs should be arriving tonight from Amazon. I'll be playing around this week to see if there's a faster way to bulk make these.

[@shawnabeals9261]

@@SeriousKeto these worked in enchiladas ok. They didn't turn into gel. They didn't have the best taste or texture for that application though. I tried an almond flour one as well as the coconut flour/oat fiber version I mentioned above. They are ok for tacos but definitely need some seasoning. The flavor is almost absent. But what I like most is that you can make a really big size "tortilla" which I've been unable to achieve with other recipes. Definitely good in a pinch where I don't have any home made tortillas on hand.

[@bflgroupieninja4370]

Thanks, Steve…and the guy that provided the recipe. Seems brilliant and I look forward to trying it. I just bought ground psyllium husk but will look for the whole. And I don’t have whey powder (I do but its vanilla flavored so clearly not an option!). BTW, after a previous video I clicked on the link for the whisk. It is truly a game changer! So much easier and faster than a regular whisk. Thanks for continuing to peak my interest on that item. Very much enjoy your channel, and seeing your family members from time to time!

ima definately try this, ive been trying different tortilla recipes and havent had much luck understanding how much of which types of flour to use and i just prefer not dirtying dishes like the food processor, an addition i thought of was maybe you could use parchment paper under the tortilla to keep it from sticking without using spray, it may not work and may make it a weirder shape, but could work. Also if it goes well i may batch the dry ingredients. Thanks for the ideas.

Best thing I have found is the egg white wraps from Publix. they taste NOTHING like egg....also egg life has them....they are excellent

Just made this and I'm really impressed - no eggy taste, very pliable, easy to roll without falling apart. Only downside I noticed was that it was thicker in some spots. I rotated it on the plate to try and even it out, but may have to spend more time on it next time. I think I'm going to be making more breakfast burritos in my future...probably some chicken, bacon, and ranch wraps too!

If you get the silicone rounds I show in the follow-up video, it largely alleviates the inconsistent thickness issue.
