Whole Wheat Flour Tortillas

from Sister's Cafe


The tortillas are really good! We used them for quesidillas, wraps and as treat warmed then slathered in butter and cinnamon sugar and rolled up! The first time I made them I did not have the Demarle Roul'pat (non stick mat) and it was a MESS!! Anyway, here is my tips:

*Use a nonstick mat when rolling out
*Roll them out very thin!
*Do not overcook!!

Other than that they are easy and no fail!!



3 cups whole wheat flour
1 tsp salt
1 cup hot water
1/3 cup oil (I used canola)


Mix all ingredients thoroughly in mixer. Remove from mixing bowl and knead on countertop until smooth (add a little white flour if the dough is too sticky). Divide the dough into 12 balls, and let rest (covered) for 15 minutes. Roll each ball into a very think circle. HEat a heavy skillet (ungreased) to medium high heat. Cook tortillas until brown flecks appear, about 30 seconds each side. (Adjust heat accordingly) Use immediately, or wrap in plastic or place in a airtight container to refrigerate or freeze. To warm, wrap in damp paper towels and microwave 15-20 seconds.
