Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Create a well in the center and pour in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and approximately 3/4 cup of warm water. Mix until a rough dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into 8-10 equal pieces, roll into balls, cover, and let rest for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
- Roll each dough ball into a circle, 8-10 inches for larger tortillas or 6-8 inches for smaller.
- Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for 30-45 seconds until bubbles form, then flip and cook until light brown spots appear.
- Transfer cooked tortillas to a warmer or wrap in a kitchen towel and serve immediately.

Notes
Ensure thorough kneading and resting for softer tortillas. Always use warm water for the best texture.
