Tortillas

I'm moving this from the quesadilla recipe to make it easier to find.

Ingredients

2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
2 T. crisco
3/4 cups water

Directions

1. Mix together flour, salt, and baking powder

2. Rub crisco between your fingers with the flour until it resembles course meal

3. Add half cup of water, then more a little bit at a time until dough just comes together

4. Knead until smooth, then divide into 8 or 12 equal pieces (depending on how big you want the tortillas) and roll each piece into a ball

5. Roll dough pieces into thin tortilla, then heat in a medium-hot skillet for a couple minutes on eat side until cooked through

(Cover cooked tortillas as you're cooking the rest so they don't get hard)
