Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.75 cups Warm water
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
Step 2
Add the vegetable oil to the dry ingredients and mix using your hands or a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 3
Gradually pour in the warm water, mixing with your hands or a spoon, until a soft dough forms.
Step 4
Knead the dough on a clean surface for about 2-3 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape them into balls. Cover the dough balls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rest for 15 minutes.
Step 6
On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll out each dough ball into a thin, round tortilla about 6-8 inches in diameter.
Step 7
Heat a non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet and cook for about 30-45 seconds, or until bubbles start to form and the bottom has golden spots.
Step 8
Flip the tortilla and cook the other side for another 30-45 seconds. Remove from the pan and keep warm in a clean towel or tortilla warmer.
Step 9
Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy with your favorite fillings or toppings!
