Pasta made from cassava flour! Dreams really do come true!!! I couldn’t be more excited to add this homemade Cassava Flour Fresh Pasta to my yuca/cassava repertoire! I’ve been meaning to create a pasta recipe, but I’ve been too caught up in all my other ideas lately! (Yuca recipe possibilities are truly endless!!!) When I came across a ravioli post by Hayley from “Health Starts In The Kitchen” on Instagram, I was compelled to try her Cassava Flour Pasta Dough recipe that very night! It was so perfectly scrumptious that I no longer feel the need to create my own! (Why recreate the wheel?) I’m just going to make her recipe from now on, and show you step by step pictures below of just how easy it is to make! I’m sure you’ll LOVE it as much as I do! See link below for Hayley’s recipe.
Have you ever had fresh pasta? It’s a real treat! Why eat processed pasta made from enriched flours when this incredible, gluten, grain, and nut-free, whole-food pasta is so quick and easy to make??? The possibilities of what can be made with this pasta dough are endless!!! I made mine into fettuccine this time, but this basic dough recipe can be used in any pasta dish!
This fresh pasta is made with Otto’s Cassava Flour – Get it by clicking here.
Click any non-perishable ingredient listed below to order if needed.
Ingredients:
– Otto’s Cassava flour
– pink Himalayan salt (I use this type because of its high mineral content)
– pastured eggs
– avocado oil (I use Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil)
– organic chicken bone broth or filtered water. (I use Pacific Foods Organic Chicken Bone Broth since I did’t have fresh bone broth on hand.)
-parchment paper (My preferred method of rolling out dough to prevent sticking to counter or rolling pin.)
-plastic wrap
Let’s make Homemade Grain-Free Pasta!
Blend ingredients into a dough (I simply mixed with a spoon, then kneaded dough with my hands.)
Wrap in plastic wrap and let sit for a few minutes.
Using a rolling pin, roll out pasta dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper to preferred thickness.
Cut into strips using a pizza cutter and straight edge. I chose to make fettuccine, but any desired shape can be made!
Place freshly cut pasta into pot of boiling water for about 5 minutes.
Check out this little video of my fettuccine boiling. (I was literally drooling in anticipation of trying it! It didn’t disappoint!!!)
Drain Grain-Free Pasta in colander.
Serve immediately as part of your favorite pasta recipe!
How simple and easy was that?!?!

Cassava Flour Fresh Pasta with sautéed veggies! Here, I topped the fettuccine with sautéed onions, garlic, zucchini, red pepper, and red chard. I then topped it with a little sauce made with bone broth and Primal Palate Adobo Seasoning. YUM!!!

Here I added chicken from my Easy Go-To Crockpot Chicken that’s always in my fridge, ready to be thrown into any recipe!
To test out if this pasta stayed fresh, I used the leftovers the next night to add to my chicken cacciatore with spinach! Pasta perfection!
