Bake 7 min, flip pieces over with thongs, and bake for 7 more minutes, set aside
For the tortillas whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder and salt in a bowl
Pour in the apple cider vinegar. Once that is mixed in then pour in the egg. Once that is mixed in pour in the water. Once the dough is a ball take it out and wrap it up in clear plastic wrap and knead it like a stress ball then throw it in the fridge for 10 minutes to rest
Take the dough out and separate into 8 balls
Heat up a pan over medium heat. Test it with a couple drops of water, they should run through the pan vs evaporate on contact.
Form your tortillas by flattening a ball of dough between a piece of parchment paper with a spatula in a circular formation
