INGREDIENTS

3 cups Wescana Organic Whole Grain Oat Flour
3 cups water
1 tsp sea salt

PROCEDURE

Combine the oat flour, water and salt in a bowl. Stir well until you no longer see lumps in the mixture with a whisk. The batter will be thin.
Let the batter sit for about 10 minutes to thicken. Check the consistency – should be like a very thin pancake mix. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water if needed.
While you are waiting for the batter to thicken, preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium low heat. Once the batter is thickened, turn the heat up closer to medium.
Spray the skillet with olive oil and add ½ cup of batter.
Spread the batter out into a thin, uniform consistency. Tilt the skillet around and spread out the batter with the back of a silicone spatula.
Once a thin tortilla has been made, let the tortilla cook for 3-4 minutes. If it seems ready to flip, flip it and cook another 3-4 minutes. Flip it again to slightly brown the first side (1-2 minutes) then flip again to brown the second side (1-2 minutes).
Transfer to a plate and continue until all the oat tortillas have been made.
