Flour Tortillas

August 31, 2015 by Kari Eliason

Recipe Details

Prep Time: 17 Minutes
Cook Time: 1.5 Minutes
Ingredients:
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 1 cup warm water

In bowl of stand mixer, add flour, salt and baking powder and whisk until well combined.

Add water and oil and mix for 1 minute, scraping down the sides.  After ball of dough is formed, mix for one more additional minute until dough is smooth. 

Place dough on a floured surface and divide dough into 16 equal pieces.   Roll each piece into a ball and place each ball into one large Ziploc bag and seal shut.  Let them rest for 15 minutes. 

While dough is resting, preheat griddle to medium-high heat. 

After dough has rested 15 minutes, remove one at a time and roll each ball into a 6-7 inch round disk.  Repeat for each dough ball.

Cook each tortilla one side a time.  Cook the first side for about 45-60 seconds until bottom has a few pale brown spots.  Flip and cook remaining side for 15-30 seconds on second side. 

Stack tortillas and wrap tortillas in a towel to cool. 

Store in a Ziploc bag or other airtight container if not eating right away.
