If you want to make Keto pinwheels with Low-Carb tortillas, this is the perfect recipe to try! First, you’ll make your own Keto tortillas with almond flour and egg. The dough rolls out into perfect tortillas that are super thin. They fry up to a nice golden color on your stovetop. In this recipe, you’ll fill each tortilla you make with cream cheese, deli-style chicken breast slices, and bacon. At your discretion, you can add more ingredients to the pinwheels. Just be sure to not overstuff the delicate tortillas so they don’t tear. Other Keto ingredients you might add are slices of cheese, green onion, or strips of bell pepper.
Combine almond flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and crack an egg into the well. Add the apple cider vinegar to the egg, then stir the ingredients together to form a sticky dough. If necessary, you can add small amounts of water if the dough is dry, but it’s unlikely you’ll need it.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap, and shape it into a flat square or rectangle. Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the chilled dough from the plastic wrap. If you’re making multiple tortillas, divide the dough into portions. Roll each portion out into a very thin tortilla between sheets of parchment paper.
To make a tortilla, heat a wide non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot throughout, place the raw tortilla directly into it. Let the tortilla cook on one side until you see small air bubbles form in the center of the dough and it can be lifted from the pan to reveal grilled edges. Flip the tortilla over and finish cooking it. Each tortilla shouldn’t take more than a minute to cook if that long.
Let the hot tortilla cool until it is only just warm, then, spread cream cheese across the tortilla. Leave the edges of the tortilla bare so the cream cheese doesn’t squeeze out later. Lay a slice of deli-style chicken breast over the cream cheese. If it’s not already cooked, you’ll need to quickly cook a slice of bacon until crispy, then lay it on top of the chicken breast.
Gently roll the tortilla up from one end to the other. If you’ve made the tortilla thin enough, it should roll without breaking apart. Use a sharp knife to remove the edges of the tortilla for clean slices. Then, slice the rolled tortilla into approximately 4 pieces. Eat while warm or enjoy it as a cold snack.
