    Wheat Flour Tortillas


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup whole wheat flour
    1 ¾ cups all–purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    1 cup water


    Combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in the oil until the mixture is crumbly. Add the water to form a soft dough. Knead by hand 5 minutes. Cover; let rest 30 minutes.

    Preheat a cast iron or nonstick griddle over medium heat. An electric skillet may also be used; heat to 320°F. Do not oil griddle or iron skillet.

    Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Flatten and roll each ball of dough on lightly floured surface until paper thin, turning frequently. Roll from the center outward until tortillas are 8 inches in diameter.

    Cook tortillas 45 seconds to 1 minute on each side, until light brown specks appear. Do not overcook. A will made tortilla puffs as it is cooking.

    Remove from griddle or skillet and wrap in clean towel to keep warm. Serve warm or use in your favorite recipe. Makes 12 tortillas.

    Note: To warm tortillas, preheat oven to 400°F. Place tortillas directly on the rack and heat 3 –4 minutes. If using a microwave, place tortillas in the microwave, cover with a paper towel and microwave for 15 – 20 seconds. When serving a number of tortillas at once, place them in a tortilla basket and cover until ready to serve. This keeps them warm and soft.
