Great tortilla recipe with a lot less fat than other recipes

SERVES 8 , 8 tortillas (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt and oil.
  2. 2
    Slowly add the warm milk. Stir until a loose, sticky ball is formed.
  3. 3
    Knead for two minutes on a floured surface. Dough should be firm and soft.
  4. 4
    Place dough in a bowl and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  5. 5
    After the dough has rested, break off eight sections, roll them into balls in your hands, place on a plate (make sure they aren’t touching) and then cover balls with damp cloth or plastic wrap for 10 minutes.
  6. 6
    Place a dough ball on a floured surface, pat it out into a four-inch circle, and then roll flat, about 6-8 inches in diameter.
  7. 7
    In a dry iron skillet heated on high, cook the tortilla about thirty seconds on each side. It should start to puff a bit when it’s done.
