Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour....We use white flour, but you can definitely use whole wheat flour instead.
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup butter or shortening
  • 2/3 cup water

Instructions
 

  • Heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan to medium high heat. Do not oil.
  • Combine all ingredients until dough ball is formed; keep kneading for up to 5 minutes until smooth dough ball forms.
  • Turn dough out onto a floured surface and divide into 8 equal portions.
  • Flatten the dough into a 3 inch flat circle.
  • Cook the tortillas directly in the hot pan, and cook just until brown marks begin to show, about 30-60 seconds each side.
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas, then keep tortillas covered with a towel wrapped to keep them soft.
  • Store in a zipper bag once completely cooled.
  • ENJOY!!!! :)
