Ingredients
Wrap Ingredients
- 2 large egg whites (approximately 1/4 cup or 60 grams)
- 1/2 tablespoon coconut flour
- Salt, to taste (optional)
- Olive oil or butter, for frying
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: Separate the egg whites from the yolks if not already done, then whisk the egg whites with the coconut flour in a mixing bowl until just combined. Add a pinch of salt if desired for seasoning.
- Heat the pan: Place a small nonstick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil or butter to coat the surface, ensuring the wrap won’t stick.
- Cook the wrap: Pour the egg white mixture into the pan, tilting it gently to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer. Fry for about 1 to 2 minutes until the bottom sets and appears firm.
- Flip carefully: Using a large spatula, carefully flip the wrap to cook the other side for about 30 seconds until set but still tender. Avoid overcooking to prevent dryness.
- Serve: Transfer the cooked wrap onto a plate and allow it to cool slightly. Fill with your preferred fillings and roll tightly to enjoy.
Notes
- Do not overcook the wrap to avoid a dry texture.
- You can customize fillings such as vegetables, lean meats, or spreads to suit your taste.
- Use a nonstick pan to make flipping easier and prevent sticking.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle herbs or spices into the batter before cooking.
- This recipe is gluten-free and low in calories, making it suitable for many diet plans.
