Essential Ingredients- 1 Tortilla
- 1 Tbsp Peanut Butter
- 1 packet Mixed Nuts (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese (approx. 50g)
- 1 Tbsp Oligosaccharide or Allulose Syrup (to taste)
- Pinch of Cinnamon Powder (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the filling for the hotteok. Take one packet of mixed nuts and chop them into bite-sized pieces using a knife or a rolling pin on a cutting board or inside a zip-top bag. It’s best to chop them so they retain a pleasant crunch rather than turning them into a fine powder.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the chopped nuts with 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, 1 tablespoon of oligosaccharide (or allulose syrup), and a pinch of cinnamon powder if desired. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly with a fork or spoon to create a delicious hotteok filling. If the peanut butter is too stiff, you can briefly microwave it to soften it before mixing.
Step 3
Now it’s time to cook the tortilla. Heat a non-stick frying pan over low heat. Place the tortilla in the dry pan. Spread the prepared hotteok filling evenly over one half of the tortilla. Then, sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella cheese over the filling. Finally, fold the other half of the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape. Gently press the edges to prevent the filling from leaking out.
Step 4
Cook over low heat, flipping occasionally, until the edges are golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and gooey. This completes your delicious Tortilla Hotteok! Covering the pan with a lid for a short while can help the cheese melt more effectively. Enjoy it warm for the best crispy exterior and sweet, nutty interior!
