Whole Wheat Tortilla
- Number of Servings: 12
Ingredients
1.5 Cups whole wheat flour1.5 Cups white flour4 Tbsp. shortening1.25 Cups warm water1 Tsp. salt2 Tsp. Baking powder
Combine dry ingredients. Cut in shortening either with a pastry knife or by hand. Add water slowly, to form a non-sticky dough. Amount of water needed may vary due to humidity, etc so start slowly. Dough should be able to be handled without sticking to the hands. Knead just enough to combine and form a smooth dough. Break off 12 equal size portions and roll into balls. Cover and let rest at least 10 minutes. After dough has rested, roll out into circles, approximately 8 inches. Dough should be fairly thin. You can make less tortillas and make them larger if you like. Heat griddle to medium high heat (or best is a cast iron pan). Put tortilla into pan and allow to cook until light brown specks appear. Flip tortilla and cook the other side the same way. It is ok if bubbles appear, these will go down when the tortilla cools. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
