This tortilla recipe is a healthy, unleavened option that takes only minutes to make. Tortillas can be enjoyed instead of bread, perfect for dipping and making waist slimming veggie wraps.
Ingredients
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 cups white flour
  • 1⅔ cup warmed almond milk
  • 1.5-2 tsp sea or Himalayan salt
  • ¼ cup whole wheat flour for kneading and rolling out tortillas
Optional
  • 1.5-2 tbsp cooking oil that can withstand high heat without smoking
Instructions
  1. add flours and salt into a food processor and start it
  2. slowly add milk through top opening until dough is formed
  3. dough should be moist but not too sticky
  4. transfer dough to floured surface and knead for 20-30 seconds
  5. divide dough into two parts
  6. roll each into a log and divide into 7 equal parts each
  7. dust and flaten each part into a disc
  8. roll out with a rolling pin into a thin tortilla 8-9 in. in diameter
  9. preheat a skillet on high heat
  10. (if you want to avoid using any oil you can use a nonstick skillet--tortillas will still be great but a little dryer; otherwise you can use a cast iron skillet)
  11. if using oil, use a couple of drops of it for each tortilla, evenly spreading it out on the skillet; alternatively you can drip oil on a plate and spread it over tortillas before placing them on the hot skillet
  12. turn heat to medium-high (make sure it's not too low, otherwise tortillas will turn out too dry!)
  13. fry 30 seconds on each side--tortillas should bubble up
  14. then 10 more seconds on each side
  15. repeat for all 14 tortillas
