Whole Wheat Tortillas
Heartier and nuttier, whole wheat tortillas are a good, wholesome swap with extra fiber and flavor.
Mixing bowl
Rolling pin (or press)
Skillet or griddle
- 2 cups 240 g whole wheat flour
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- 2 tbsp neutral oil or melted butter
- ¾ cup 180 ml warm water (adjust as needed)
Mix dry & fat. Combine flour and salt. Stir in oil until mixture is crumbly.
Add water & form dough. Add warm water gradually until dough forms; knead 1–2 minutes until smooth.
Rest. Cover 10–20 minutes to hydrate the bran (makes rolling easier).
Divide & roll. Divide into 8 balls and roll to about 1/8″ thickness. Whole wheat may crack if too thin — aim slightly thicker if needed.
Cook. Cook on hot skillet 30–60 seconds per side until done. Keep wrapped.
