Zutaten

Anleitungen
Dough
- In a bowl, add the flour, salt, and baking powder and mix well. Cut the butter into pieces and add it the bowl. Mix the dough with a wooden spoon while slowly pouring in the hot water. As soon as the dough is cold enough to touch it knead it by hand until it is smooth and well combined.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal sized pieces, shape them into balls and place them on a plate. Cover them with plastic wrap and let them rest for 10 to 20 minutes.
Tortillas
- Roll out the dough pieces with a rolling pin as thinly as possible. Stack them on top of each other with some parchment paper between each tortilla.
- Heat up a pan over high heat and make sure to add some oil or butter to the pan if using a cast ion skillet. Place one tortilla in the pan and let it fry for 30 to 60 seconds or until small bubbles form on the surface.
- Then flip the tortilla and let it fry for another 25 to 45 seconds or until there are light brown spots on the second side. Then remove it from the pan. Stack the finished tortillas on top of each other and wrap them in a towel to keep them warm and soft while repeating the process for all the tortillas.
Notizen
*If using a cast iron pan, put a little bit of oil or butter in there and spread it with a silicon brush.
**Feel free to use vegan butter instead.
