Bread Machine Tortillas

Bread Machine Tortillas

2 cups bread flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons shortening
1/2 cup water

Place all ingredients in your machine’s fully assembled pan, in the
order specified by your machine’s manual. Select the dough cycle and
press start.

The dough should form a nice ball of dough. You may need to add a
tablespoon of water or flour to get it there. when the dough cycle is
finished kneading, stop the machine and remove the dough to a lightly
floured surface. Divide the dough in to 8 equal size chunks.

On a lightly floured surface coat both sides of the ball with flour
and roll out to a shape that is as round as you can get. Cook the
tortilla in a heavy skillet that has a light coating of oil or pan
spray. Cook for 2 minutes on each side or until there are little
black burnt looking spots. Remove from the skillet to a plate and
cover with a towel. The tortillas should not be stiff. Repeat with
the remaining dough balls.
