Ingredients

2 cups almond flour 224g
2 cups tapioca starch 260g
2 large eggs room temperature
4 tablespoon water * See notes

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, add your almond flour and tapioca starch and mix well. Form a well in the center and add the eggs and water. Slowly whisk together, until a smooth dough remains. If needed, add more water.
Lightly flour a kitchen surface with tapioca flour. Transfer the ball of dough onto it and gently knead it several times. The dough should feel smooth and firm. If the dough feels sticky or wet, add more tapioca flour. Cover the dough in a damp towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, roll out the dough until a thin layer. Using a pizza cutter, slice thin strips of noodles from it.
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the pasta into it and let it boil for around a minute. Remove from the heat and drain the pasta in a colander. Distribute the pasta into bowls and top with your favorite pasta sauce.

Notes

* You may need to add more if your dough is too thick.

Serving size: 85g (3 ounces), which is about a heaping cup.

To store: Leftover pasta can be stored in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 2 days. Any longer, and it will begin to stick together.

To freeze uncooked pasta: Arrange the uncooked noodles in a single layer on parchment paper and freeze until firm. Transfer them to a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 6 months. I recommend cooking the pasta straight from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes to the cooking time.

To make ahead: I often make the dough a day or two in advance and keep it tightly wrapped in the fridge. You can also roll and cut the noodles a day ahead- just dust them lightly with tapioca flour, arrange them in a single layer, cover, and chill until you’re ready to cook.
