Now that we are all getting used to making our own bread it is time to bring in some variety to the mix. In case you are not familiar with how to make bread, start off by checking the flaxseed fresh baked bread recipe. Once you get comfortable making your own bread it gets easier to make all different kinds of varieties. Fortunately, making 16 delicious tortilla wraps from scratch are also very easy to do.
Today we are making 16 delicious tortilla wraps from scratch. Once you eat these tortillas, you may no longer be purchasing them from the grocery store again.
Although it is convenient grabbing a package of 8-10 tortilla wraps from the grocery store, it may not be available in the future. In case times get tougher and you have no access to buy any, this is to how to make your own.
A pack of 10 tortillas can cost as much as $6.49. However, making these 16 tortillas wraps from scratch will cost under $2.00. You are paying a fraction of the cost.
Once you have them, good luck eating store bought tortillas. You simply cannot compare the quality of the two kinds. There is a big difference in the taste.
They are very easy to make and require no yeast. If 16 tortillas seems like too many to make, break off half of the dough and put it away in the freezer to make for another time.
Otherwise these wraps can last up to one week in the fridge. If the tortillas harden after a few days then put 1/2 a teaspoon of water over the bread before re-heating it to make it soft again.
2-3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/4 whole wheat flour for a total of three cups of flour
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tsp baking powder and salt
1 cup of warm water
Making 16 Delicious Tortilla Wraps From Scratch
In a pyrex dish add in some water followed by some all-purpose flour and then olive oil. Sprinkle in a little salt and baking power and mix everything up. You can also use whole wheat flour as well. This is the last of my all purpose flour.
Kneed the dough and when you are done cover it up with a cloth on top for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes lift the cloth, take out the dough and cut it into 16 individual and even size pieces. Then cover it up again. The bread is not going to rise but it will soften up and get easier to make after some time.
Now you can start making the tortillas. Take a piece out and place it on the kitchen counter. With a rolling pin, start to roll out the dough and make it as flat as possible. It does not have to be a perfect round circle unless it is important to you.
When it is flat place it on a frying pan using no butter or oil. Have the temperature at medium heat.
The first wrap will take up to one minute for it to cook properly on both sides.
After that it takes between 30-45 seconds to make the rest. While one tortilla is baking on the pan get the next one ready.
Each time one is baked, place it in a container and cover it up to maintain its freshness.
When you reach the last two tortillas turn the stove off and they will cook on low heat. After they are all done, close the lid of the container to keep it warm and fresh.
You are done.
These are delicious.
If you are not making something using the tortillas right away, let them cool down. When it is cool, put the container in the fridge and take it out when ready.
Out of the 16 tortillas, eight of them are used for one kind of meal. The second batch of 8 tortilla wraps are for another kind of meal.
Both versions coming soon.
