• 2 ½ cups all purpose flour ,or whole wheat
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 3 tablespoons olive oil ,or any cooking oil
• ¾ cup warm water

How to Make Spinach Tortillas :

Step 1

Start by placing the fresh spinach and warm water into a blender. Blend until the mixture turns completely smooth and bright green. This spinach liquid will help color and flavor your tortillas naturally and in a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix everything well so the salt and baking powder are evenly spread through the flour.

Step 2

Pour the green spinach liquid into the dry ingredients. Add the olive oil as well. Begin stirring with a spoon, then use your hands to knead the dough until it becomes soft and smooth. This should take about 3–5 minutesb then cover the dough with a towel and let it rest for at least 15 minutes. Resting makes the dough easier to roll and keeps the tortillas soft.

Step 3

Split the dough into small balls each one about the size of a golf ball. Take one ball at a time, sprinkle some flour on your work surface, and roll it into a thin circle.

The thinner you roll it, the softer it cooks and preheat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Place one rolled tortilla onto the hot pan. Cook for about 30–40 seconds until it puffs slightly and gets small brown spots. Flip and cook the other side. Repeat until all tortillas are done.

Step 4

Keep the cooked tortillas wrapped in a clean towel so they stay warm and soft until serving.
