My protein sparing tortilla chips recipe is perfect for hitting your protein goal without adding fat!

HOW TO MAKE PROTEIN SPARING TORTILLA CHIPS 

To make my protein sparing tortilla chips, I used Further Food gelatin!

Further Food gelatin is sourced from the highest quality, grass-fed, pasture-raised, hormone-free, and antibiotic free bovine.

Adding Further Food Gelatin works perfectly for making my protein sparing tortilla chips extra delicious and chewy! Do not skip adding the gelatin! It adds a texture just like a real tortilla chips!

Ingredients

  

0.25x0.5x1x2x3x

• ▢ 4 large egg whites
• ▢ 4 teaspoons Further Food gelatin
• ▢ Pinch of cream of tarter
• ▢ 1/4 teaspoon Redmond Real Salt onion salt or garlic salt, if desired, plus extra for salting the tortilla chips
• ▢ 2 teaspoons powdered Allulose
• ▢ 2 tablespoons unflavored egg white protein powder
• ▢ Avocado Oil Spray

FOR SERVING:

• ▢ Salsa
• ▢ Protein Sparing Sour Cream Click HERE

Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Spray the parchment with avocado oil spray.
• Place the egg whites, gelatin, cream of tartar, salt and allulose in a medium bowl.
• Use a hand mixer on high and whip the whites until double in size and there are SOFT peaks. Add the egg white powder and blend until just combined. (NOTE: If you want a thinner wrap like EggLife wraps, just mix until combined then pour onto a pan and fry until cooked).
• Use a spatula to spread the 1/2 of the mixture out onto each of the prepared baking sheets as thin as you can, about 1/8 inch thick.
• Place into the oven to bake for 6-8 minutes or until cooked though.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. Once cool, gently peel the paper off. And set the parchment lined baking sheet aside.
• Place the protein sparing tortilla onto a cutting board and use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the wrap into tortilla chip shapes.
• Place the tortilla chip pieces back onto the parchment paper. Spray with avocado oil spray and sprinkle with salt (or seasonings). Bake in a 200 degree F oven for 1 hour or until completely dry and crisp. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely (the protein sparing tortilla chips will crisp up as they cool).
• Dip into salsa or my protein sparing sour cream (recipe is in my Pure Protein cookbook!)
