Chewy Flour Tortillas - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour (do not use bread flour, they'll be tough)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3/4 cup lukewarm 2% low-fat milk (could use whole or skim)

Preparation

1. Stir together flours and baking powder.
2. In another bowl, combine salt, oil, and milk and give it a good whisk.
3. Gradually add the milk mixture to the flour and mix into a nonsticky dough. (This will be much tougher to do by hand, rather than a mixer. You'll need to combine, then knead vigorously.).
4. Divide dough into 6 balls of equal size, cover, and let rest 20 minutes. (The dough won't rise, it just needs to rest to activate the gluten.).
5. Spritz your tortilla press with cooking spray and press each ball flat. (You can roll them out too, but you'll really need to flour your surface and it's far easier to use a press.).
6. Transfer the tortilla to a hot, dry skillet or griddle. Let cook 30 seconds to a minute, flip it, and cook the other side 30 seconds to a minute.
