Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Pecan flour
• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 0.75 cups Warm water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pecan flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 2

Add the vegetable oil to the dry ingredients and use your hands to rub the oil into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Slowly pour in the warm water, while stirring with a fork or your hands, until the dough begins to clump together.

Step 4

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 2–3 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Cover the dough balls with a clean kitchen towel to keep them from drying out.

Step 6

On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll out each dough ball into a thin circle, about 6–8 inches in diameter.

Step 7

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes on the first side, until bubbles form and brown spots appear.

Step 8

Flip the tortilla and cook for another 30–60 seconds on the other side until lightly golden and cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the cooked tortilla from the skillet and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm and pliable. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.

Step 10

Serve the pecan tortillas warm, and enjoy with your favorite fillings or toppings!
