Tortillas are perfect for holding all sorts of delicious food together, but with 30 grams of carbs or more per wrap, they just don’t have a place in a keto or low carb diet. These egg white wraps look just like real tortillas but without any of the carbs! They’re an Egglife wrap copycat, just more economical because they are cheaper to make than the store bought wraps.
With only two ingredients and zero carbs, this recipe is the perfect budget-friendly choice for replacing tortillas and other wraps or noodles. Plus, you can make them as big as you want, depending on the size of your skillet. I use a medium-sized, 8-inch skillet, but you can use a 10-inch skillet for burrito-sized wraps or a small 6-inch skillet for small wraps that would be perfect for tacos or small quesadillas.
Use these keto wraps to make enchiladas, sandwich wraps, or even use as noodles in keto lasagna. If you’re sticking to breakfast, make a breakfast taco by adding more eggs, bacon, and cheese as a filling.
How to make egg white wraps
- Mix egg whites and protein powder or xanthan gum in a blender until foamy.
- Pour ⅓ cup of the mixture into a non-stick skillet. Swirl the pan to coat an even layer around the bottom of the skillet
- Cook the keto egg wrap for 1-2 minutes each side.
- Remove the wrap from the skillet and repeat two more times with the remaining egg mixture.
Key ingredients & substitutions
- Egg whites – You can use liquid egg whites or remove the yolks yourself. If using eggs, save the yolks to add to scrambled eggs or some homemade mayonnaise to go in your wrap.
- Protein powder – Any unsweetened, unflavored low-carb protein powder will work. This protein powder is zero carbs.
- Xanthan gum – In this egg white wrap recipe, either protein powder or xanthan gum can be used as a thickener and for stability. Using xanthan gum is a more affordable option.

Once the wraps are made can they be baked in the oven to make tortilla chips like the Egglife wraps?
I haven’t tried that yet. I didn’t even know you could do that with the Egglife wraps. I’ll have to try it! I did use them to make enchiladas which I did bake in the oven.
Thanks for the recipe. Why do you state these are healthy because they are high in protein and low in fat. Doesn’t that contradict the entire point of keto?
Many people eat low carb or keto for different reasons. When you become fat adapted, you don’t always need high dietary fat since you may want to burn body fat.
