Notes
Ingredients Links
- Almond Flour I use the Kirkland Costco brand of almond flour (I buy it in bulk on Amazon or at Costco itself occasionally). Typically you can find it in a double pack on Amazon for a reduced price.
- Coconut Flour – I also use coconut flour for this recipe. As I’ve noted in many of my past recipes, the brand of almond and coconut flour can affect the final outcome of the recipe because absorbency can vary depending on how the flour has been processed.
- Vital Wheat Gluten – If you have questions about why I include this ingredient, I wrote an entire article on what it is and why I use Vital Wheat Gluten on my keto diet! I also included where to buy it, how many carbs it contains..and how to use it in different kinds of baking.

Tips
- Add more sour cream if you find the dough too dry.
- Feel free to switch-up the spices if you prefer!
- Roll your flat bread thinner for a crispier final product
- Store this bread in a ziplock bag at room temperature for up to 2 days OR freeze and thaw for a future snack.
- Re-heat by microwaving between a slightly damp piece of paper towel to bring back some softness to the bread.
