Begin by washing and peeling the beets. Grate them finely using a grater or food processor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated beets, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir to mix the dry ingredients thoroughly.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry mixture. Use a spoon or your hands to mix until a dough starts to form.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour as necessary.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball. Cover the dough balls with a damp cloth and let them rest for about 10 minutes.
After resting, roll out each ball into a flat, thin circle, about 8 inches in diameter, using a rolling pin. Dust with flour to prevent sticking.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.
Place one rolled-out tortilla in the heated pan and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until you see bubbles forming and the surface has golden spots.
Remove the cooked tortilla from the pan and place it in a clean towel to keep warm. Repeat the process for the remaining dough balls.
Serve warm as part of your favorite wrap, or enjoy them as soft shells for tacos or any fillings of your choice.
