Soaked whole wheat tortillas

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 cups whole wheat flour
  • 5 T. butter expeller pressed coconut oil, pasture raised lard, or any combination
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 T. apple cider vinegar
  • 1 heaping tsp sea salt

Instructions

  • Cut in fat into flour. I usually just squish it around in my fingers until it's mixed well.
  • Stir water and apple cider vinegar together and add to flour.
  • Stir and work together until it forms into a ball.
  • Cover and let stand 8 hours.
  • Sprinkle salt a little at a time onto dough and knead in until all of salt is completely incorporated.
  • Heat a dry cast iron skillet to medium high.
  • Divide dough into 12 pieces and roll into balls.
  • On a floured board, roll out each ball to about 8-9 inches in diameter. Tortillas should be very thin.
  • Place in hot skillet until they begin to bubble and brown on one side. It only takes a minute or two.
  • Flip and cook the other side an additional minute or two until brown. Do not overcook or they will be hard.
  • While cooking the remainder of the tortillas, keep finished tortillas on a plate covered with a towel to keep them warm and pliable.
