Ingredients
  • 4 cups Whole Wheat Flour (I swap in 1 cup Kamut Flour)
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Sugar (or honey)
  • 2 Tablespoons Powdered Milk
  • ½ cup Oil (I usually use canola oil)
  • 1¼ cup Luke-Warm Water
Instructions
  1. Whisk together all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate mixing bowl mix together hot water and oil.
  3. Stir wet ingredients into the flour mixture with a spatula until all the flour is sticking to the dough. If some of the flour is not sticking to the dough ball, just add a Tablespoon or 2 of water to get it to stick.
  4. Spray the top of the dough with a little oil and cover with plastic wrap.
  5. Leave it for about 5 minutes.
  6. Hand knead the dough ball on an oiled surface for about 2½ minutes.
  7. Roll out dough to a long shape, like you were making french bread. Wrap the dough up in plastic wrap and let wrest for 20 to 30 minutes.
  8. Pre-heat tortilla maker, mine takes about 9 minutes to pre-heat.
  9. Cut dough into 10 pieces, depending on the size of your tortilla press or maker. I have a 10 inch tortilla maker and 9-10 pieces usually works out fine.
  10. Press and cook tortillas. If your tortilla maker allows you to set the temperature, I find that the MEDIUM setting works well for me. If you are cooking them on the stove top pan, medium to medium-high usually works.
