Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
In a separate small bowl, combine the warm water, honey, and vegetable oil. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball. Cover the dough balls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rest for 15 minutes.
After resting, lightly flour your work surface and rolling pin. Roll each dough ball into a thin, round tortilla about 8 inches in diameter. Don’t worry if they’re not perfectly round!
Heat a dry, non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, place a rolled tortilla onto the skillet and cook for 30-45 seconds, or until bubbles start to form and the bottom develops light brown spots.
Flip the tortilla and cook for an additional 20-30 seconds on the other side. Remove from the skillet and place under a clean kitchen towel to keep warm.
Repeat with the remaining dough balls, stacking the finished tortillas under the towel to keep them soft.
Serve warm or allow to cool and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. These tortillas can also be frozen for longer storage.
