In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, xanthan gum, salt, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly to ensure that all dry ingredients are well incorporated.
Gradually add the hot water to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming. The hot water helps activate the psyllium husk and xanthan gum, which bind the dough together.
Add the olive oil to the mixture and knead the dough with your hands until it becomes smooth and pliable. If the dough is too sticky, you can sprinkle a little more almond flour while kneading.
Divide the dough into four equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Place one dough ball between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a thin round tortilla shape, about 6 to 7 inches in diameter. Repeat this step with the remaining dough balls.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, carefully peel the top parchment paper off a tortilla and place it on the skillet, with the remaining parchment side up. Peel off the remaining paper.
Cook each tortilla for about 2 to 3 minutes on one side, or until it starts to show golden brown spots. Flip the tortilla and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes on the opposite side.
Transfer the cooked tortillas to a plate and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft and warm. Continue this process with the remaining tortillas.
Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container for later use. Enjoy your almond tortillas with your favorite fillings.
