Homemade tortillas


This recipe works really well!  I made mine with 100% whole wheat, and I added 1/2 tsp of baking soda.  Also, I made the water boiling water and rolled them as thin as I could.  The final product doesn't look as round and neat as store-bought tortillas, but they're soft and tasty, and very cheap/relatively healthy! :)  Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Stir in water and oil. Turn onto a floured surface; knead 10-12 times, adding a little flour or water if needed to achieve a smooth dough. Let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Divide dough into eight portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 7-in. circle.
  • In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook tortillas over medium heat for 1 minute on each side or until lightly browned. Keep warm. Yield: 8 tortillas.
