Here's a recipe we all enjoy. If you don't have freshly milled flour, this is still healthier than store bought tortillas with tons of preservatives.
Ingredients
4 cups flour
1/3 cup healthy oil (coconut or olive oil)
1 cup really warm water
1/4 -1/2 tsp salt
1-2 tsp sugar or honey (optional)
If using coconut oil that is still solid mix it with flour until it resembles coarse crumbs, then add everything else.
If using a liquid oil simply add everything to the flour and stir. After initial stirring, continue to mix with your hands until it is a smooth dough.
If it's very dry add a tablespoon or two of water. If it's sticky add a tablespoon or two of flour. Divide this dough into 16 balls. Place the balls back in the bowl, cover with a cloth and let sit for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat a cast iron skillet or electric griddle to a very hot temperature. I turn my electric griddle to 400. Form each ball into a circle with a tortilla press or a rolling pin, and place immediately on the griddle. Flip the tortilla when 1 or 2 large bubbles begin to form, and cook for a couple more minutes.
Remove from the griddle and wrap in a moist kitchen towel. The moist towel will help them remain flexible. Enjoy within a couple days. If you want to reheat these, wrap them in a moist towel or paper towel while reheating.
