Flour Tortillas
Makes:
8-10 tortillas

Ingredients
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1/4 cup bacon fat
• 3/4 cup warm water
Preparation
• Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl.
• Mix in butter and bacon fat until it resembles coarse crumbs.
• Gradually add warm water until the dough forms.
• Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding flour if sticky. Cover and rest for 10 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 8-10 balls, cover, and let rest for 15-30 minutes.
• Roll each ball into a thin circle (8-10 inches).
• Cook each tortilla in a hot skillet for about 30 seconds per side until bubbly and lightly browned.
• Keep cooked tortillas warm under a towel and repeat with remaining dough.
Serve warm with creamed honey or your favorite dish.
Here are some creative tortilla ideas to try:
▪︎ Herbed Tortillas: Add finely chopped fresh herbs like cilantro or chives to the dough for extra flavor.
▪︎ Whole Wheat Tortillas: Use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose for a nuttier taste and more fiber.
▪︎ Spicy Tortillas: Mix in cayenne pepper or chili powder for a spicy kick, perfect for tacos or wraps.
▪︎ Cheesy Tortillas: Incorporate shredded cheese into the dough for a cheesy twist that complements any filling.
