INGREDIENTS

If you are asking which ingredients do I need to make buckwheat wraps, here they are:

• Buckwheat flour - Buckwheat flour is the best flour to make these tortillas. It has the best consistency and tortillas will not fall apart. This flour is perfect for this recipe. No other flour is needed or combining different types of gluten-free flours. You can also make your own homemade buckwheat flour by blending buckwheat groats in a high-speed blender.
• Water - This is our second ingredient. For this recipe you will need only buckwheat flour and water - that's it! No need for plant-based milk or any other liquid ingredient. Water is more than enough.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: In a medium-sized bowl combine buckwheat flour and water and whisk until there are no lumps of flour visible. The batter should smooth and creamy.

You can also add some herbs and spices, but this is absolutely optional.

Step 2: Cook them on a non-stick pan from both sides for about 30 seconds over medium-high heat and they are pretty much done. You can serve them with veggies, rice, hummus, or beans. These are the best gluten-free flatbread wrap recipe.

Tips and tricks for PERFECT buckwheat tortillas

1. Use light buckwheat flour if you don't like the taste of buckwheat. There are so many people who can't stand the taste of buckwheat. In that case, buy light buckwheat flour which has a better taste and lighter color.
2. The batter will be thicker than the crepe batter, but that's ok. Help yourself with a spoon to spread out the batter thinly. It takes some practice but tortillas will be thin and perfect.
3. Cook them from both sides - always!
4. Don't replace the buckwheat flour. These tortillas work only with this type of flour.

FAQ
