Soft Flour Tortilla's

Who doesn't love amazing fresh tortilla's.
** I like to have all the items we are needing out so I can explain to the girls what we are doing and our oldest always like to see everything, so when she says “can you show me Mama?” I can say right away “of course honey”.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups flour we typically use Kamut or Einkorn
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup warm water I have substituted for milk as well
  • ⅓ cup neutral flavor oil we use butter

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl combine flour, salt, and baking powder
  2. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add oil (butter) and water (milk) store until a shaggy ball of dough forms
  3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until the dough is nice and smooth, about 5 mins. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for 20mins to 2hrs. 
  4. Divide the dough into 16 equals portions. Turn each piece to coat with flour. Form each piece of dough into a ball and flatten with the palm of your hand. Cover your dough.
  5. Heat a large skillet on medium heat
  6. Use a light amount of flour & tortilla press/rolling pin to roll each dough piece into a rough circle about 6-7 inches. Don’t stack uncooked tortillas they will stick to each other!
  7. When the skillet is hot, place one tortilla in the hot skillet and cook for 45 seconds to a min! Should be light brown spots & starting to bubble! Flip and do the same to the other side!
  8. Remove the cooked tortillas & place in a covered container—this will keep them nice and soft.
  9. Enjoy them warm or allow them to cool and store in an air tight container!
