Fat Free Flour Tortilla Recipes

Steps:

• 1. STAND MIXER METHOD: Add flour, seasoning if desired, water and oil. Using a dough hook, set on stir and let the dough mix. Scrape the sides of bowl after a few minutes. Let the machine work the dough for about 7-8 min. Add more flour as dough is working if it is sticking to sides or bottom of mixing bowl.
• 2. BREAD MACHINE METHOD: Place water and oil in bread pan, then salt if desired, then flour. Place on Dough Only cycle and let your machine do the work.
• 3. Once mixing and kneading is complete, divide dough into small portions (I made 14 out of mine and they made 6-8" tortillas). Form into a ball, roll out on floured surface as thin as possible.
• 4. Brown in very hot cast iron skillet or on comal or griddle. Cook on each side just a few seconds till browning begins.
• 5. Mrs. Dash seasoned tortillas

Steps:

• Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until tiny bubbles start to form around the edges of the pan (the milk should be 180 degrees F), 4 to 5 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat and stir in the lard until melted. Let cool for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl until completely combined. Pour in the warm milk mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until a shaggy dough forms.
• When cool enough to handle, knead the dough in the bowl until almost completely smooth, about 3 minutes; do not overwork, the dough should be soft and only slightly elastic and not sticky. Wrap in plastic and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour to relax dough.
• Divide the dough into 16 balls about a scant 3 tablespoons each (or 46g.). Arrange the balls on a rimmed baking sheet and cover with a damp kitchen towel until ready to use.
• Working with one dough ball at a time, roll out on a lightly floured surface to a 7-inch round.
• Heat a medium cast-iron skillet or large griddle over medium-high heat.
• Working with one at a time (unless using a large griddle), cook the tortillas, reducing the heat if they are getting dark too quickly, until air bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is brown in spots, about 30 seconds. Poke any large bubbles with a fork to release steam, flip the tortillas and cook until brown in spots on the other side, about 30 seconds. Stack and wrap the tortillas in a clean kitchen towel and keep warm. Repeat rolling and cooking the remaining dough balls.

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine the flour and 1 cup of water.
• Mix well.
• If it needs more water to get to a dough stage, then add.
• On a floured surface knead the dough until it is soft.
• Make it into balls (12-16 depending on size).
• Then flour a board well.
• Take each ball and roll it as flat as you can.
• Meanwhile heat a pan until it is quite hot.
• Place the rolled out tortilla in the pan and cook for about 45 seconds to 1 minute or until it is bubbling and starting to brown.
• Then turn it over and cook for another 45 seconds.
• Place a clean cotton dishtowel on a plate.
• As each tortilla comes out of the pan put it inside the towel and wrap them up.
• I got 16 tortillas but my pan is small.
• If you want bigger tortillas, make bigger balls of dough.

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Mix in the lard with your fingers until the flour resembles cornmeal. Add the water and mix until the dough comes together; place on a lightly floured surface and knead a few minutes until smooth and elastic. Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Use a well-floured rolling pin to roll a dough ball into a thin, round tortilla. Place into the hot skillet, and cook until bubbly and golden; flip and continue cooking until golden on the other side. Place the cooked tortilla in a tortilla warmer; continue rolling and cooking the remaining dough.
