Super simple flour tortillas for wraps, tacos, quesadillas and more!
Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 heaping Tablespoon butter (can substitute vegan butter)
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup to ¾ cup water
Instructions
  1. In a bowl combine dry ingredients. Add one piece of butter cut into small pieces and the olive oil and using your hands mix together until the mixture is crumbly. Start by adding ½ cup of water working it into the dough until a ball forms. You will have to knead this gently in the bowl until it comes together and add a splash more water if needed (but the ½ cup usually works for me). When the dough comes together, turn onto a floured surface and knead for a minute or until smooth. Divide dough into four quarters and each quarter into 3 pieces, creating 12 pieces total. Roll each piece into a ball. Cover balls with a damp town and let rest for 20+ minutes.
  2. When ready to cook, roll dough out with a rolling pin (will need a little additional flour for this), roll as thin as you can. Turn the griddle on to medium high heat and let it get really hot. Spray with cooking spray or a little oil and cook tortillas one at a time for 1-2 minutes per side or until lightly browned (you will see some bubbles starting to form as you cook). Keep cooked tortillas wrapped in damp cloth until ready to serve.
Notes
You could use all white wheat flour or all all-purpose too.
If you want 8 inch tortillas, divide the dough into 8 portions instead.
