Sweet Potato Tortillas
Healthy and delicious Sweet Potato Tortillas is an easy homemade tortilla recipe made with only two ingredients. It's pliable, flavorful and slightly sweet, perfect for tacos, wraps, and a side for a quick meal.
Servings: 8 pieces
Instructions
- In a saucepan, cover the sweet potato with water and bring it to a boil. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until tender and soft in the center. To check for doneness, poke the center of the sweet potato with a fork to ensure it is fully cooked.
- Once the sweet potato is cooked, drain and let it cool for a few minutes or until it’s easy to handle. Peel and mash the sweet potato in a bowl. Add the all-purpose flour and combine. Knead the mixture until a smooth dough forms.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and shape them into balls. Dust the work surface with flour and roll each ball out with a rolling pin until it is about 2 mm (1/16 inch) thick.
- Place a tortilla on a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook each side for about 1 minute or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas.

- Be sure to cook the sweet potato until it is fully tender and soft in the center. This helps to mash and incorporate the ingredients easier, which results in a smoother dough.
- Make sure the sweet potato has cooled down enough before mashing it. This will prevent the dough from becoming too sticky and difficult to handle.
- Use a non-stick pan when cooking the sweet potato tortillas to prevent them from sticking to the surface.
