Ingredients
- 1 cup beet puree
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the beet puree. Take 2 medium-sized beets, peel and chop them, then steam until tender. Blend the steamed beets until smooth, making sure there are no chunks. You’ll need about 1 cup of puree.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to distribute the baking powder and salt evenly throughout the flour.
Step 3
Add the beet puree and olive oil to the dry ingredients, then gradually add in the water, mixing continuously until a soft dough forms. You might not need the entire 0.5 cup of water, so add it slowly.
Step 4
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then cover them with a damp cloth and let them rest for 10 minutes.
Step 6
Once rested, roll out each dough ball into thin circles, about 8 inches in diameter, using a rolling pin on a floured surface.
Step 7
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place one tortilla into the skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side until bubbles form and brown spots appear.
Step 8
Remove the cooked tortilla from the skillet and place it on a plate covered with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Step 9
Serve the tortillas warm or allow them to cool. Store extras in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Enjoy as wraps or a side to your favorite meals.
