Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp avocado or olive oil
  • 4 gluten free tortillas

Instructions
 

Step 1: Heat the Tortillas

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of avocado oil or olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Warm the gluten-free tortillasone at a time for 30 seconds on each side until they are slightly golden brown. Drain any excess fat using a wire rack or paper towel.

Step 2: Shape the Tortilla

  • Place the tortilla in an oven safe glass bowl or ceramic oven-safe bowl, pressing gently to achieve a bowl shape. A ladle is a great tool for pressing the tortilla into the bowl. Use a little bit of foil balled up for support if needed to maintain the form.

Step 3: Bake to Perfection

  • Set the bowls filled with the shaped tortillas on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes until crispy and golden brown. Allow to cool 5 minutes prior to removing from bowls.
