These Easy Homemade Tortillas wraps are so much better than anything from the store.Homemade tortillas are softer, chewier, and you just can’t beat the flavor.
Simply mix flour, baking powder, and salt together. Then, add softened butter and hot water. Mix this until a soft, shaggy dough forms, then use your hands to need the dough into a smooth ball.
Let the dough rest for 10 minutes to allow the gluten to settle.
Divide the dough into 12 to 14 dough balls, then roll each out using a rolling pin.
I like to roll all the dough balls out before I start cooking any of the tortillas. This helps the cooking process go much easier and smoother.
Cook until bubbles appear on top. Then. just like a pancake, flip and cook until lightly golden.
These are delicious warm, right off the skillet. Fresh tacos can also be stored for up to 3 days, or kept frozen for even longer!
