Home Made Large Flour Tortillas

Ingredients:

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3/4 cup warm water

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to combine.
2. Add the olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Gradually add the warm water to the mixture, stirring until a dough forms. You may need to adjust the amount of water slightly to achieve the right consistency.
4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for 3-5 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
5. Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized portions and roll each portion into a ball.
6. Use a rolling pin to roll out each ball of dough into a thin circle, about 8 inches in diameter. If the dough sticks to the rolling pin or surface, lightly dust it with flour.
7. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, place a tortilla in the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until lightly browned and bubbles form.
8. Repeat with the remaining dough balls until all the tortillas are cooked.
9. Stack the cooked tortillas on a plate and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm and soft until ready to serve.
