Fat Free Flour Tortilla image

Do you ever see those recipes that advise people to use "fat free tortillas?" I've never seen them in the stores, ever. So this is a great way to enjoy tortillas without the fat and cholesterol. I often make a bunch and then cut some of them up for tortilla chips and then freeze the rest of them.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 tortillas

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 tablespoons fat-free mayonnaise
1 1/4 cups hot water

Steps:

  • In large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir well. Add fat-free mayonnaise and use pastry blender (or fork) and blend until flour mixture appears to be coarse throughout.
  • Add hot water and stir well. Knead in extra flour. Cover and allow to stand for 10 minutes.
  • Set iron griddle over medium to medium-high heat. Tear off a piece of dough, roll into a ball (approximately 2 1/2-inches).
  • On well-floured board, roll dough out into a circular flat form as thin as possible (less than 1/8-inch thickness) approximately 6 inches in diameter. Add more flour if dough is sticky.
  • Place tortilla on heated griddle and allow it to bubble slightly. Heat for approximately 1-2 minutes.
  • Flip tortilla and brown other side approximately 1 minute longer. If tortilla has browned in variable spots and does not have a dough-like texture, then it is done.
