Ingredients

    3 cups flour
    2 tsp. baking powder
    3/4 tsp. salt
    about 1 cup of water

Directions

Stir together dry ingredients. Gradually stir in enough warm water to form a crumbly dough, then work dough with your hands until it holds together. Turn out on a board and knead till smooth.

Divide into 8 pieces and shape each in a smooth ball. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and let rest 15 minutes. Flatten one ball into a 4 or 5 inch circle, then roll to a 9 inch round, rolling from the center to the edges. Turn tortilla after stretching dough as you carefully peel it off the board.

Place on a preheated griddle or heavy wide frying pan or electric griddle set at 375. Almost immediately blisters will appear. Turn tortilla over and press all over with a wide spatula. Turn tortilla again and press on the other side until blisters turn a golden brown. If tortilla sticks or browns too quickly, reduce the heat. Stack tortillas as cooked inside a folded cloth in plastic bag. Close bag and let steam
