Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup warm water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, incorporate the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the warm water to the mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
Cover the dough balls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rest for at least 10 minutes. This helps relax the gluten and makes them easier to roll out.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a thin circle about 7-8 inches in diameter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
Place a rolled-out tortilla onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until light golden spots appear.
Remove the cooked tortilla and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel to keep warm and soft. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Serve the tortillas warm with your favorite fillings or store them in an airtight container for later use.
