Welcome back friends! 

Who wants some warm, buttery and freshly made tortillas to use for breakfast, lunch or dinner? 

I know I do, so let’s make some!

BUTTERY TORTILLAS

• 3 cups of flour 
• 1 tablespoon of baking powder
• 2 teaspoons of salt
• 1/2 cup of butter
• 1 cup of water

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add the flour, baking powder and salt to a large bowl and whisk to combine.
2. Melt 1/2 cup of butter in 1 cup of water and stir until well combined.
3. Gently pour the butter and water mixture into the flour mixture and mix with your hands until a dough forms, then knead that dough into a smooth ball.
4. Put the dough ball back into the bowl and cover it with plastic. 
5. Allow the dough to rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then remove it and separate it out into smaller balls of dough.
6. Transfer them back into the bowl, cover them with plastic, and allow them to rest for another 10 to 15 minutes.
7. Pre-heat your pan or skillet to a medium heat.
8. On a lightly floured surface, roll out a ball of dough into an 8 to 10 inch round.
9. Place your tortilla in the middle of the pan.
10. When bubbles form, flip your tortilla and cook for an additional 30 seconds, then remove it from the heat.
11. Repeat steps 8 through 10 until all of the tortillas are cooked!
12. Enjoy!
