Spinach is nutrient dense with a rich profile of vitamins, minerals and bioactive compounds¹ – and these wraps are light yet satisfying. Perfect for filling with tasty vegetables, homemade hummus and protein-rich ingredients for an easy lunch or nourishing make-ahead meal. We suggest letting them completely cool before using for that classic wrappable texture.

Method

Step 1

Add all the ingredients to a blender in the order listed and blend until completely smooth.

Top tip: The batter should be smooth and pourable with an even consistency. Make sure the pan and oil are fully heated before adding the batter and allow the first side to cook properly before flipping. The first wrap may not be perfect, but they become easier as you go.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick or cast-iron frying pan over a medium heat, then lightly spray with oil and reduce the heat to low.

Step 3

Pour the batter into the pan and quickly swirl it outwards in a circular motion to form a thin wrap, around 20–25cm wide. The batter sets quickly, so work fast to spread it evenly before it cooks.

Step 4

Cook for around two minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the wrap looks set and lightly golden underneath.

Step 5

Carefully flip and cook for a further one to two minutes on the other side. The wraps will be delicate while hot, so transfer gently to a plate.

Step 6

Allow to completely cool for five to eight minutes before filling and rolling with your favourite ingredients.

High-fibre spinach wraps FAQs

Is spinach a superfood?

Spinach is often labelled a superfood due to its high nutrient density. It provides a wide range of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants while being very low in calories, which is why it’s commonly included in healthy eating patterns.

Can you freeze homemade wraps?

Yes, homemade wraps (tortillas) can be frozen to help keep them fresh for up to around three months. To stop them sticking together or cracking, place a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper between each wrap before stacking. Then store them in a freezer-safe bag, removing as much air as possible before sealing.

Can you substitute regular oats for gluten-free oats?

Yes, gluten-free oats can be used in the same way as regular oats. They’re nutritionally very similar and work the same in recipes, with no noticeable difference in texture or structure.
