Ingredients
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal, as finely ground as possible
  • 1/2 teasp. salt
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 2 TBSP. oil
  • 1 1/2 cups water

Directions
  1. in bowl: combine the flour, cornmeal, and salt
  2. in another bowl: combine beaten eggs, oil and water
  3. pour the egg/water mixture slowly into the flour/cornmeal mixture stir.
  4. this helps prevent lumps
  5. you may need a little more water.. the batter will be very thin. like a crepe batter
  6. this recipe call for the use of an iron skillet but a heavy bottomed frying pan should work just fine.
  7. use a 8 - 10 inch frying pan.. wipe with a very little amount of oil
  8. preheat the frying pan over medium heat
  9. pour in 1/4 cup of batter ( stir it first the cornmeal sinks)
  10. tilt and rotate the pan to make a 'pancake' about 6 inches across
  11. allow a few mins to become lightly brown then flip over and lightly brown the other side. don't over cook or they will become too stiff to roll
  12. keep tortillas warm until ready to use by stacking them with paper towels in between them and cover them in a low oven

This looks great. we eat a lot of tortilla's so i am looking forword to trying this one.


If I'm ever brave enough to attempt making my own tortillas, I will give this one a try! I do love fresh tortillas, and was spoiled when I lived in Texas, as you could get them daily at any bakery.


We use sooo many tortillas, I should own stock in the company! I am going to try this over the weekend. thank you for sharing!
