How to Make Amaranth Tortillas Gluten Free

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup amaranth flour, ½ cup tapioca starch, ¼ cup brown rice flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  2. Gradually add ¾ cup warm water, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
  3. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 6-inch circle using a lightly floured surface.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
