Homemade Whole Wheat Flour Tortillas
We once taught how to make these to a large gathering of women. Afterwards, they put these out with the Taco Salads for lunch alongside tortillas brought from a local and very popular restaurant! These were gone in minutes while the other ones sat. Once you try these, you may never go back to store-bought!

Equipment
- Rolling Pin
- Griddle
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 Cups Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/2 Cup Coconut Oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 Cup Warm Water
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with whisks, mix flour and salt and cut in oil— let this run for 3-5 minutes
- Switch the whisks for a dough hook.
- Add very warm water and continue mixing until the dough is smooth–another 3 minutes
- Take out the dough and divide it into 12 equal sized pieces. The easiest way to do this is to make a log and divide it into 12 parts.
- Using the palms of your hand, roll each piece into a round ball and flatten it out a bit. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes to 1 hour.
- Heat a griddle over med-high heat.
- Use a rolling pin, roll the balls as thin as you can. They can be pretty thin and still peel up beautifully from your counter, ready to go onto the heated griddle.
- Bake each tortilla 30-45 seconds per side until fluffy and lightly browned.
- Set aside on a plate until you're ready to eat.
- Refrigerate or freeze extras.
