In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, and sea salt. Whisk them together until there's a uniform consistency.
In a separate bowl, beat the large egg and then add the water and olive oil. Mix until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir together until a dough forms. It should be soft and a little sticky, but manageable.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. You may want to lightly dust your hands with tapioca flour to prevent sticking.
Place a piece of parchment paper on a flat surface and dust lightly with tapioca flour. Place a dough ball on the parchment and flatten it slightly by hand.
Cover the dough with another piece of parchment paper and roll it out into a thin circle, about 6 inches in diameter, using a rolling pin. Roll all the dough balls in the same way.
Heat a non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Do not add oil to the pan.
Once the pan is hot, carefully remove the top piece of parchment paper and lift the tortilla using the bottom piece of parchment paper. Gently peel the tortilla off and place it in the hot pan.
Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on one side, until bubbles form and the edges begin to lift. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. The tortilla should have golden-brown spots.
Transfer the cooked tortilla to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm and pliable while you cook the remaining tortillas.
Serve the tortillas warm. You can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat them on a skillet to regain pliability before using.
