I typically make a double batch and make a dozen ~12 inch tortillas, and two dozen ~6 inch tortillas and then freeze them until the day we are ready to use them. They will last about 3 days unrefrigerated, and about a week or so in the refrigerator, and for months in the freezer (but they never last that long).
- 2 1/2 cups white whole-wheat flour
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup warm water
- In your mixer bowl set with a dough hook (or paddle) pour in the flour, oil, and salt. Mix until crumbly, scraping the sides as necessary.
- With the mixer running, slowly add warm water and continue mixing until the dough is smooth and forms into a ball.
- Take dough out, roll it into a long snake (~12 inches long) then cut into 12 equal pieces, or into 24 equal pieces if you want to make smaller 6 inch tortillas.
- Heat a 12 inch cast iron skillet over med-high heat. When the pan is nice and hot you can start rolling out your tortillas.
- On a lightly floured surface roll each pall into a 10-12 inch circle and place into skillet. As it cooks I start rolling my next tortilla.
- The tortillas cook for only about 30-45 seconds then flip and cook another 30-45 seconds.
- Repeat till you are finished, then eat, refrigerate or freeze!
