Flour Tortillas 🌮🥖
These Flour Tortillas are soft, chewy, and perfect for wrapping up your favorite fillings! 🧀🥩🌯 A great base for tacos, burritos, or wraps. Easy to make and absolutely delicious! 🍴✨
Ingredients (Makes 8-10 tortillas):
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 🌾
- 1 tsp salt 🧂
- 1 tsp baking powder 🍞
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil 🛢️
- 1 cup warm water 💧
Instructions:
- Mix the Dry Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder. 🌾🧂🍞
- Add Oil:
- Pour in the vegetable oil and mix it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. 🛢️✨
- Add Water:
- Slowly add warm water, a little at a time, and mix until a dough forms. 💧🧑🍳
- Knead the dough for about 3-5 minutes until smooth and elastic. If it’s too sticky, add a bit more flour. 🤲🌟
- Rest the Dough:
- Divide the dough into 8-10 equal balls and cover them with a damp cloth. Let them rest for 15 minutes. 🕒🌿
- Roll the Tortillas:
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough ball into a thin circle (about 6-8 inches in diameter). 🍞🎉
- Cook the Tortillas:
- Heat a skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. 🌡️🍳
- Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until bubbles form and the surface is golden brown. 🔥🫣
- Remove from the pan and keep warm by wrapping them in a clean towel. 🌯✨
Tips for Success:
- Keep the dough covered to prevent it from drying out. 🌿🧴
- For extra softness, brush each tortilla with a little melted butter after cooking! 🧈💫
- These are great for tacos, fajitas, or even homemade wraps for lunch. 🌮🥙
