    See our review and ranking of the most popular low-carb tortillas that you can buy at the store or online!

    Some of the best Mexican dishes include tortillas, like quesadillas, enchiladas and tacos. Unfortunately, regular, store-bought tortillas are high in carbs – anywhere from 15 to 20 net carbs per tortilla. Thankfully, more and more brands are now selling low-carb tortillas. Here's a guide to help you with the purchasing process.

    What to Consider When Buying Low Carb Tortillas

    If you're on a low-carb or keto diet, here are several things to consider before buying:

    • Net carbs: Net carbs are determined by subtracting the grams of fiber and sugar alcohol from total carbohydrates. For most of these low-carb tortillas, the number of total carbs is quite high. However, the amount of net carbs is much lower due to the higher fiber and/or sugar alcohol content.
    • Ingredients: Be sure to always look at the ingredients, as many of these tortillas may not be appropriate for special diets (like gluten-free or strict keto). That's because many of these low-carb tortillas include wheat flour, modified wheat starch, palm oil, and other ingredients that may not fit into those diets.
    • Taste: In terms of flavor, you can find flour, whole wheat, multigrain and more. You should be aware that some tortilla brands have more of an aftertaste (sometimes common in low-carb bread products) than others.
    • Cost: The cost of low-carb tortillas can vary depending on where you purchase them. If you get them from a large, local grocer, you’ll likely spend less per pack. Purchasing from Amazon can cost more since you may be required to buy more than one pack at a time (like 6 full packs of tortillas). That can be costly, especially if you decide you don't like them.
    • Strict keto? If you follow a strict keto diet, then many of these low-carb tortillas may not be appropriate due to ingredients like wheat flour, modified wheat starch, and certain oils.

    Low Carb Tortilla Review

    This review and ranking includes personal opinions, so please take them with a grain of salt! We'd love to hear your feedback on low-carb tortillas in the comments below!

    1. La Banderita Carb Counter Tortillas

    Image of La Banderita Low Carb Tortillas in a bag

    La Banderita's low-carb flour tortillas are soft and taste similar to regular flour tortillas, and have just a slight aftertaste (common in most low-carb tortillas). They're also low in calories (45 calories) and high in protein (40 percent). We've seen them at some large grocers (like Kroger) for a decent price. They may not fit a strict keto-diet due to the ingredients like modified wheat starch.

    Net carbs: 4 grams net carbs (15g total, 11g insoluble fiber) per tortilla (42 grams)
    Amazon Rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars

    Ingredients: Water, Modified wheat starch, Wheat protein, Cellulose, Enriched unbleached flour, Contains 2% or less of the following: Extra virgin olive oil, Salt, Xanthan gum, Sorbic Acid, Aluminum-free leavening, Preservatives, Dough conditioner.

    Pros:
    - Soft texture; similar in flavor to regular flour tortillas
    - Minimal aftertaste
    - Low in calories (45 calories) high in fiber, and protein (40%)
    - Can be found at some large grocers

    Cons:
    - Slight aftertaste
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (like modified wheat starch, cornstarch)

    2. La Tortilla Factory Flour Low Carb Tortillas

    Image of La Tortilla Factory tortillas in bags

    Although La Tortilla Factory's Low-Carb Flour Tortillas aren't as tasty as La Banderita's low-carb tortillas (or even Ole Extreme Wellness and Nutra-Rica tortillas), they're a solid choice for a low-carb tortilla. They're a little bland and have somewhat of a doughy flavor, but they're decent after heating in a pan. Plus, we didn't detect much of aftertaste. Some bloggers also report they have minimal impact on glucose levels (like Quantified Diabetes and Serious Keto reviews; however, everyone's body is different and may react differently).

    Net carbs: 6 grams net carbs (15g total carbs, 9g fiber) per tortilla (42 grams)
    Amazon rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
    Ingredients: water, cellulose fiber, enriched wheat flour (unbleached wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid, malted barley flour), wheat gluten, palm fruit oil, contains 2% or less of each of: cellulose gum, citric acid, guar gum, honey, non-aluminum baking powder, sea salt, sunflower lecithin, wheat protein isolate, yeast, to maintain freshness

    Pros:
    - Decent texture; tastes better after heating in pan
    - Minimal to no aftertaste
    - May have minimal impact on glucose levels (although everyone's body is different)
    - Can be found at most grocers at a decent price

    Cons:
    - Somewhat bland and doughy in flavor
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (like enriched wheat flour)

    3. Olé Xtreme Wellness High Fiber Flour Tortillas

    Image of Xtreme Wellness tortillas in bag

    These tortillas taste similar to regular flour tortillas and only have a slight aftertaste. They're also low in calories and can be found at some grocers, such as Kroger. Overall, these are a decent choice and get good reviews on Amazon. However, they may not fit a strict keto-diet due to ingredients like modified wheat starch and whole wheat.

    Net carbs: 4 grams net carbs (15g total, 11g fiber) per tortilla (45 grams)
    Amazon rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars
    Ingredients: Water, Modified wheat starch, Wheat protein, Cellulose, Whole wheat, Contains 2% or less of the following: Extra virgin olive oil, Salt, Xanthan gum, Ground Flax seed, Aluminum-free leavening, Preservatives, Dough conditioner

    Pros:
    - Taste similar to regular flour tortilla
    - Soft texture
    - Low in calories (50 calories) and high in fiber

    Cons:
    - Slightly sour aftertaste
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (whole wheat, modified wheat starch)

    4. Guerrero Nutri-Ricas Carb Watch with Flaxseed

    IMage of NutriRicas tortillas in a bag

    These Nutri-Ricas low-carb tortillas have a tasty flavor with minimal to no aftertaste. Even if you're not low-carb, you'd probably enjoy the taste of these. However, they're tougher and chewier than others on this list. You can find these at some large grocers (like Kroger) for a decent price. They may not fit a strict keto-diet due to ingredients like modified wheat starch and wheat flour.

    Net carbs: 4 grams net carbs (13g total carbs, 9g fiber) per tortilla (33 grams - please note smaller size)
    Amazon rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars
    Ingredients: Water, Modified Wheat Starch, Wheat Flour, Vital Wheat Gluten, Wheat Gluten Isolate, Vegetable Shortening (Interesterified and Hydrogenated Soybean Oils), Contain 2% or less of: Cracked Flaxseed, Salt, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Baking Soda, Distilled Monoglyceride, Fumaric Acid, Sucralose, Cellulose Gum, and Calcium Propionate and Sorbic Acid (to Preserve Freshness).

    Pros:
    - Tasty tortillas with no aftertaste
    - Can get at some large grocers for a decent price

    Cons:
    - Chewy, tougher texture
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (wheat flour, modified wheat starch)

    5. Mission Carb Balance Soft Taco Flour Tortillas

    Image of Mission Carb Balance tortillas in a bag

    Mission carb balance flour tortillas are one of the best tasting low-carb tortillas in this review since they taste almost like regular flour tortillas. These tortillas have minimal to no aftertaste and you can now find them at most grocers.

    We have some concerns with the ingredients (enriched bleached wheat flour, vegetable shortening, etc.) and there conflicting reports online regarding their glucose response (for example, low-carb blogger Serious Keto reported a spike in glucose levels after eating these.). However, everyone's body is different and may react differently.

    Net carbs: 4 grams net carbs (19g total, 15g fiber) per tortilla (43 grams)
    Amazon Rating: 4.8 out of 5 starts

    Ingredients: Water, Modified Food Starch, Enriched Bleached Wheat Flour, Vital Wheat Gluten, Powdered Cellulose, Vegetable Shortening (Interesterified Soybean Oil, Hydrogenated Soybean Oil and/or Palm Oil), Wheat Protein Isolate, Salt, Leavening , Cellulose Gum, Preservatives, Distilled Monoglycerides, Enzymes, Wheat Starch, Calcium Carbonate, Antioxidants, Natural Flavor, Sunflower Oil, Sucralose, Canola Oil, Triglycerides, Dough Conditioners

    Pros:
    - Soft and taste similar to regular flour tortilla
    - Minimal to no aftertaste
    - Now available at most grocers and at affordable price

    Cons:
    - May impact blood sugar levels (everyone's body is different)
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (enriched bleached wheat four, palm and soybean oil, and preservatives)

    6. Mama Lupe Low Carb Tortillas

    Image of Mama Lupe tortillas in bags

    Mama Lupe tortillas get good reviews from Amazon reviewers and others online. However, in our side-by-side comparison, we found these tortillas to be the sweetest (likely due to sucralose), which was a bit too sweet for us. Also, there is an aftertaste with these tortillas, which is why we rated them lower.

    Net carbs: 4 grams net carbs (15g total, 11g insoluble fiber) per tortilla (36 grams - please note smaller size)
    Amazon Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars

    Ingredients: water, whole wheat flour, low carb flour (wheat gluten, corn starch, oat fiber, soy flour, soy oil, isolated soy protein, sesame flour, salt, calcium sulfate, sodium acid pyrophosphate. Contains 2 percent or less of dextrose, sodium bicarbonate, fumaric acid, calcium propionate, potassium sorbate, sucralose, and sodium metabisulfate, vegetable shortening, baking powder, salt, sodium propionate, fumaric acid, and dough conditioner

    Pros:
    - Soft texture
    - Okay flavor, but does have an aftertaste

    Cons:
    - Sweeter in flavor than other brands
    - Somewhat strange aftertaste
    - Somewhat expensive on Amazon: 2 packs for $19
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (whole wheat flour, cornstarch, sucralose)

    7. La Tortilla Factory Low Carb, Whole Wheat Tortillas

    Image of La Tortilla whole wheat tortillas in bag

    If you're looking for a low-carb wheat tortilla, La Tortilla makes a decent one. Their wheat tortillas are soft with a strong wheat flavor, but do have somewhat of a sour aftertaste. The ingredients don't include any sweeteners (which we prefer) and include expeller pressed oil (which is healthier). You can find these at some large grocers (and online, of course). Just 3 grams of net carbs per tortilla.

    Net carbs: 3 grams net carbs (11g total carbs, 8g fiber) per tortilla (36 grams)
    Amazon rating:
    4.5 out of 5 total stars
    Ingredients
    : Water, oat fiber, whole wheat flour, soy flour, wheat gluten, expeller pressed canola oil, contains 2% or less of each of: non-aluminum baking powder, sea salt, guar gum, citric acid, yeast, xanthan gum, to maintain freshness (sorbic acid, calcium propionate).

    Pros:
    - Low in calories (50 calories)
    - Soft texture
    - Basic wheat flavor

    Cons:
    - Somewhat of a sour aftertaste
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (whole wheat flour, soy flour)

    8. Tumaro Whole Wheat Tortilla Wraps

    IMage of Tumaro's Whole Wheat tortillas in a bag

    Tumaro makes a variety of low-carb tortillas (like multi-grain and sun dried tomato) and their whole wheat tortillas are popular on Amazon. We didn't like these low-carb wheat wraps as much as La Tortilla Factory's wraps since they're somewhat bland and dry. They're also a little higher in net carbs (6 grams net carbs). You can find them on Amazon, but you'll need to buy more than one pack.

    Net carbs: 6 grams net carbs (13g total carbs, 7g fiber) per tortilla (40 grams)
    Amazon rating:
    4.8 out of 5 total stars
    Ingredients
    : Water, whole wheat flour, oat fiber, vital wheat gluten, soy flour, canola oil, calcium propionate, mono-diglycerides, salt, guar gum, lecithin, dried honey powder, potassium sorbate, fumaric acid, natural flavor, xanthan gum, baking powder, enzymes, sodium metabisulfite.

    Pros:
    - Tastes like a wheat tortilla
    - Soft texture

    Cons:
    - Bland and dry
    - Somewhat expensive on Amazon (Pack of 6 each is $33)
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (whole wheat flour, soy flour, canola oil)

    9. Marilla & Ricardo Almond Flour Tortilla

    Image of Maria and Ricardos tortillas in a bag

    Unlike the other tortillas on this list, these tortillas are made with almond and coconut flour and are gluten-free. The ingredients are almost keto-friendly with the exception of tapioca starch. We found the flavor to be somewhat bland and the texture dry and grainy. However, these tortillas get a favorable rating on Amazon (4.5 out of 5 stars). Unfortunately, we had to order a larger amount from Amazon, which made them more expensive for us.

    Net carbs: 4 grams net carbs per tortilla (22 grams - please note smaller size)
    Amazon rating:
    4.5 out of 5 stars
    Ingredients
    : almond flour, water, tapioca starch, psyllium fiber, coconut flour, apple cider vinegar, sea salt, xanthan gum

    Pros:
    - Grain-free, gluten-free
    - Decent, quality ingredients; most ingredients keto-friendly except tapioca starch

    Cons:
    - Grainy, dry texture; easily tears apart
    - Bland flavor
    - Somewhat expensive on Amazon (4 packs with 6 each is $34)
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients

    10. Mr. Tortilla Low-Carb, Multigrain Tortilla Wraps

    Mr. Tortilla Multigrain Tortilla in bags

    Although the net carbs are fairly low (2 grams net carbs) in these tortillas, we found the flavor to be somewhat bland with a strange aftertaste. They're also thinner wraps that are a little rubbery in texture. That said, the wraps got a decent rating on Amazon (4.2 out of 5 stars) and there are only 35 calories per tortilla.

    Net carbs: 2 grams net carbs (6g total carbs, 4g fiber) per tortilla (19 grams - please note smaller size)
    Amazon rating:
    4.2 out of 5 stars
    Ingredients
    : Water, oat fiber, vital wheat gluten, organic whole wheat flour, soy bean flour, canola oil, calcium propionate, aluminum free baking powder, salt, mono-diglycerides, lecithin, potassium sorbate, fumaric acid, xanthan gum, guar gum, sodium metabisulfate

    Pros:
    - Low in calories (35 calories per tortilla)

    Cons:
    - Bland; strange aftertaste
    - rubbery texture; very thin
    - May not fit strict keto diets due to ingredients (wheat flour, soy bean flour, canoa oil)

      Many low carb keto tortillas and other products contain sucralose. That can definitely raise your blood sugar. Especially in those that are sensitive to it.

        Thanks for your feedback. In our review, three brands have sucralose (Mama Lupe, Mission, Nutri-Rica).

        There is emerging evidence that nonnutritive sweeteners like sucralose may not be as inert as initially thought. That being said, ultimately the choice of what sweetener to use is a personal choice (as this article from Forbes outlines https://www.forbes.com/health/body/artificial-sweetener-vs-sugar/).

        This is one of the reasons in our product reviews that we list out the ingredients. Fortunately, in this review there are several options for those looking to avoid sucralose.
