Homemade Whole Wheat Tortillas

Using a Flatbread Maker

3 cups Whole Wheat Flour

1 tsp salt

1/3 cup olive oil

1 cup warm water

Food Processor Method:

Place flour and salt in bowl of processor.  Add oil and process for about 3 seconds.  With machine running, pour water through feed tube in a steady stream.  Let machine run until dough forms a ball.  Dough should be a medium-stiff consistency.  If dough is too stiff, add a little more water.

Hand Mixing Method:

Rub flour, salt and oil together with your fingers until completely incorporated and fine crumbs form.  Pour water into dry ingredients and immediately work it in with a fork.  Dough will be in large clumps.  Sprinkle with flour and knead until smooth, about 2 minutes.

DIRECTIONS

Divide dough into 12-15 equal pieces, roll into balls, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest at least 30 minutes before baking.

I use a Flatbread Maker to bake the dough (VillaWare UNO Grand Wrap).  Roll out the dough into a circle as thin as you can get it without breaking- still being able to move it to the hot iron.  Place it on the hot surface and move the lid up and down cooking the wrap.  Flip the wrap after 1 minute of baking and cook the other side the same way- moving the lid up and down.  The wrap should be cooked and ready in about 2 minutes or less.
