Recipe: Homemade Flour Tortillas (using Bisquick)

Breads - Assorted
HOMEMADE FLOUR TORTILLAS

1 1/2 cups baking mix (like Bisquick)
1/2 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons shortening
1/2 to 3/4 cup water
Additional baking mix and flour, if needed

Mix baking mix, flour, and baking powder in medium bowl. Cut in shortening with fork until crumbly. Gradually stir in 1/2 to 3/4 cup water until soft dough forms. If dough is too sticky, gradually stir in equal amount of baking mix and flour (start with 1/2 tablespoon each) to make dough easy to handle.

Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; gently roll to coat. Shape into ball; knead 2 minutes or until smooth. Divide dough into 8 pieces, roll each piece into a 6- to 7-inch circle. Dough should be very thin. Repeat with remaining dough.

Heat an ungreased griddle over medium-high heat. Place 2 tortillas in griddle; cook over medium-high heat until surface of tortillas starts to bubble. The underside of the tortilla will be brown in spots. Turn; cook until underside of tortilla is brown in spots.

Stack cooled tortillas on paper towel and cover with damp dish towel. Carefully wipe flour off griddle; repeat with remaining dough.

VARIATION:

WHEAT TORTILLAS:
Reduce flour to 1/4 cup. Add 1/4 cup whole wheat flour to baking mixture.

Makes 8 tortillas
