Whole Wheat Tortillas
Hearty and healthy, whole wheat tortillas are beyond simple to make and go great with bold flavored wraps, tacos, and gyros!
Servings: 8 tortillas
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour I like whole wheat pastry flour best
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons oil
- 1/2 cup warm water
Instructions
- Mix flour and salt in a medium bowl. Add oil and water to make a stiff dough. You may need more or less water depending on the type of wheat and how recently it was ground, but the dough should be stiff.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Divide dough into 8 balls. Roll out each ball on a lightly floured surface until super thin (pretty much as thin as you can without making holes in it).
- Cook tortillas one at a time in the skillet, turning when bubbles start to appear.
- Keep warm cooked tortillas wrapped in a towel while you are cooking the others.
- Eat right away while still hot!
Notes
- I really like these for big flavored meals, like gyros and wraps with lots of flavors.
- To get a more consistent "round-ish" shape, roll the dough ball from the center out in all directions.
- Practice makes perfect, especially with tortillas! Don't give up if they aren't perfect the first time.
- You could definitely make this dough into bigger burrito size or smaller street taco sized tortillas. Just make sure to roll them nice and thin and cook them the same way.
