Was about to head to bed when I read this recipe and HAD to try it immediately! SO SO good. I live in a very arid area, so I put the tortillas in a styrofoam tortilla warmer as they came off the griddle (keeping the lid on as much as possible). It steamed them and they stayed soft and pliable. This has always been an issue before. Can’t wait to make these again with my homemade refried beans for supper!

these were great! I did need a bit more flour than the recipe stated, but that’s par for bread recipes. Thanks for the great recipe!

I made these tonight. The dough was perfect, and they tasted fantastic. I can’t believe how easy it was, I’ll be making these on a regular basis!

Perfect! I have been wanting to make my own tortillas for a while and am so glad I came across this recipe. These were super easy and tasted fantastic!

Where I live (Ghana, W. Africa) it costs about $12 for a package of imported flour tortillas so I had no choice but to learn to make my own. I’ve used a nearly identical recipe for a few years, the only difference is that I add the warm water a tablespoon or two at a time, incorporating it with my hands (way easier than a spoon or whisk). I evenly apportion the giant ball of dough (after setting) to smaller even size balls. Then I place them one at a time on a flat surface and put a cutting board on top which I bear weight on. That flattens it out pretty well and then the rolling pin is only needed a little bit.

I use olive oil all the time for this recipe and they are delicious. I would love to use some rendered beef tallow if I had some… canola and shortening are health hazards! (Read Nourishing Traditions or Weston A. Price stuff).

I use olive oil all the time for this recipe and they are delicious. I would love to use lard (the real kind from beef) if I had some… canola and shortening are health hazards! (Read Nourishing Traditions or Weston A. Price stuff).
