If you buy a lot of tortillas, you’re probably very familiar with all the plastic that comes along with every purchase.
Each package only contains around eight tortillas, and if you eat them regularly—on Taco Tuesday and beyond!—that waste adds up quickly. So learning that it’s possible to make homemade oat tortillas with two simple ingredients is a total game-changer.
Oats are still a supermarket all-star, with oat milk brands flying off the shelves. But conscious consumers forget you can use the fiber-packed grain for far more than homemade oat milk, cookies, and oatmeal.
Just ask Carleigh Bodrug, the New York Times bestselling cookbook author behind PlantYou, whose oat tortillas recipe already has racked up millions of views on TikTok.

“Did you know when you blend two cups oats and 1 to 1.5 cups water, you make the perfect gluten-free tortilla batter?” she writes. “You can even add salt and nutritional yeast for a more savory wrap.”
Aside from limiting waste, these vegan and gluten-free tortillas are incredibly easy to make. You’ll have a delicious base for your work lunches and can pile on whatever your heart desires.
“You’ll have the perfect gluten-free tortillas that work for sweet or savory wraps,” Bodrug says. “I topped mine with crushed avocado, tomato, sweet n sour tofu, and hoisin sauce—so good.”

How to Make Oat Tortillas

3. Heat up a pan over medium heat.
4. Add the batter about 1/4 cup at a time in a pan, like you’re making pancakes.
5. Flip when bubbly, allowing the other side to cook.
