Whole Wheat Tortillas

Ida

3 c. whole wheat flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
⅓ c. butter or margarine
1 ¼ c. warm water

Mix flour, baking powder and salt in a non-metallic bowl. Use a pastry blender or fork to mix in butter (or use kitchen aid) until consistency is like coarse sand. Stir in warm water and knead by hand until it cleans the bowl and feels like playdough.  Cover with a damp cloth and let sit for 10-60 minutes.  Preheat pan to medium/med-high.  Roll out and fry on pan.  Don’t leave on for too long or tortillas end up dry and brittle.
