Breakfast tortillas are a delightful and versatile way to start your day. They can be filled with a variety of ingredients, making them perfect for any taste preference. Whether you’re looking for a quick and easy breakfast or a hearty meal, these tortillas are sure to satisfy. In this article, we will guide you through the process of making breakfast tortillas, so you can enjoy this delicious dish at home.
Ingredients
To make breakfast tortillas, you will need the following ingredients:
– 2 cups of all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon of baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon of salt
– 1/4 cup of vegetable oil
– 1 cup of warm water
– Additional ingredients for filling (such as scrambled eggs, cheese, avocado, and salsa)
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix the dry ingredients together until well combined.
2. Add the vegetable oil to the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Gradually add the warm water to the mixture, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water; if it’s too wet, add a little more flour.
4. Once the dough has formed, turn it out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. Cover the dough with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
6. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
7. Flatten each ball into a tortilla shape, using a rolling pin or the bottom of a glass.
8. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place a tortilla on the skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until it’s lightly browned and puffed up.
9. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas.
10. To assemble the breakfast tortillas, place a cooked tortilla on a plate. Add your desired filling ingredients, such as scrambled eggs, cheese, avocado, and salsa.
11. Fold the tortilla in half and enjoy your delicious breakfast tortillas!
Additional Tips
– You can customize your breakfast tortillas by adding different fillings, such as bacon, mushrooms, or black beans.
– If you prefer a gluten-free option, substitute the all-purpose flour with gluten-free flour.
– To save time, you can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before rolling and cooking the tortillas.
Now that you know how to make breakfast tortillas, you can start experimenting with different fillings and enjoy a tasty breakfast every day!
