Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Water
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir them together with a fork or whisk until they are well combined.

Step 2

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the water and olive oil.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients together with a spoon or your hands until a dough starts to form.

Step 4

Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface and knead it for about 5 minutes until it becomes soft and pliable.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.

Step 6

Using a floured rolling pin, roll each dough ball into a 7-inch circle. If the dough sticks, sprinkle a little bit of flour on the surface.

Step 7

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place one of the rolled-out tortillas into the skillet.

Step 8

Cook the tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until brown spots appear, and it puffs up slightly.

Step 9

Remove the cooked tortilla from the skillet and place it on a plate with a clean towel over it to keep warm.

Step 10

Repeat the cooking process for the remaining dough balls.

Step 11

Serve the tortillas immediately or store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
