Keto Tostadas

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   In a large skillet, add avocado oil and heat over medium high heat. Add ground beef, break up with a spatula and let cook until browned. Stir in taco seasoning and pour in 1/4 cup of water. Turn down heat to low, cover and let simmer for 5 minutes.

   For this step

   • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
   • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
   • ¼ cup water
2. 2

   To a small bowl, whisk together almond flour, protein powder, xanthan gum and salt.

   For this step

   • 1 ⅓ cup almond flour
   • 2 tablespoons protein powder
   • 1 tablespoon xanthan gum
   • ½ teaspoon salt
3. 3

   Stir in hot water and mix until a dough ball forms. Divide the dough into 8 even balls.

   For this step

   • 6 tablespoons hot water
4. 4

   Using a tortilla press or a rolling pin, place a ball of dough in between two parchment circles and press or roll out to a thin circle.

5. 5

   To a medium skillet, add enough avocado oil to fill the bottom of the skillet 1 cm from the bottom (just enough so the tortilla will submerge while frying) and heat over medium heat. Once oil is hot, peel off the parchment paper from each side of tortilla and place in the oil. Press down tortilla with a spatula and let fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Flip over and fry the other side for 1-3 minutes until golden brown, hardened or almost hardened. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel lined plate to dry. Repeat with remaining shells.

   For this step

   • Avocado oil for frying
