Healthy Hacks

How to make homemade tortillas

For the best tortillas, skip store-bought and make your own — here’s how you do it!

1. In a medium mixing bowl add 1 cup masa, 1/2 cup water, 1 tablespoon avocado oil and a pinch of salt and mix until dough forms a ball and feels similar to play-dough. Add more water if needed.
2. Cut dough into 6 pieces, roll pieces into balls and cover with plastic wrap. Cut 2 sides of a Ziplock bag and place 1 dough ball in the center. Using a tortilla press, or a flat bottom pan, press dough into tortillas, about 1/8-inch thick.
3. Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook tortillas until slightly golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Place tortillas on a plate and cover with a tea towel.

You can make tortilla dough in advance and store in your fridge for up to 3 days. Just form dough into a ball and wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
