Once you've had these you'll never want to eat a store-bought tortilla again. Yields about 8 tortillas and takes about 30 minutes from start to finish unless you have a tortilla press (gotta get me one of those now!). Make sure you add boiling water and that your griddle is piping hot!
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 cup boiling water
3 Tbsp olive oil
Directions:
Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in boiling water (must be boiling) and oil with a wooden spoon. Turn onto a floured surface and knead 10-12 times, adding a little flour or water if needed to achieve a smooth dough. Let rest for 10 minutes. Divide dough into eight portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 7-in circle. In a large nonstick skillet or griddle coated with cooking spray, cook tortillas for 1 minute on each side or until lightly browned. Keep warm.
