Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
  2. Pour in the melted butter. Mix in with a fork or with your fingers until the mixture resembles cornmeal.
  3. Add in the water and mix until the dough comes together. Pour onto a lightly floured surface and knead the dough until it is smooth.
  4. Cover the dough and let it sit for 30 minutes. This will help to relax the dough which makes it easier to roll the dough into tortillas without it shrinking.
  5. Heat a griddle or a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  6. Cut the dough into 12 equal portions. Working with one piece at a time, and keeping the rest of the dough covered so that it doesn’t dry out, roll the dough into a round about 6-8 inches in diameter.
  7. Place the tortilla on the hot griddle or into the hot skillet and cook until bubbly and golden, then flip and cook the second side. Place into a tortilla warmer or under a clean kitchen towel.
  8. Continue until all the dough has been cooked.
