Homemade Flour Tortillas

Flour Tortillas

4 cups flour
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking powder
3/4 cup canola oil
1 1/2 cup warm water

Mix flour, salt and baking powder.  Add oil and mix it until powdery, add water and knead until soft but not sticky. (knead a few minutes, then it will not be sticky, did not need to add extra flour).
Divide dough into 20 pieces and shape into balls, cover them up with plastic bag (so they don't get dry).
Roll out thin.  Bake on a very hot ungreased griddle until freckled about 20 seconds on each side.

makes approx 20 small tortillas

We made these to go with the cafe rio pork/beef, black beans, cilantro rice, romaine lettuce, and tomatoes.  They were really easy to make and delicious!
