How to Make Flour Tortillas | Vegan, Cheap, Quick & Easy 

Just what I've been looking for thank you ☺💚🌱🌍

Thanks and enjoy!

Can i use bread flour?

Roti is delicious and so are these .

Thank you so much, happy to hear this. Enjoy!

I love both roti and chapati, thanks for sharing!

Glad you liked it!!

What a treat!

Great to hear! They're a favorite in our home.

What is qautity of flour??

It's in the video, all measurements are. Or written recipe is here --> mexicanmademeatless.com/flour-tortillas/

Coconut oil is a great addition! You'll see the first time you buy store ones & immediately will crave the homemade ones. :) Thanks!!

Is olive oil ok too use?

@@Gabriel-gv4zu Yes, it's perfectly fine to use it. Like coconut oil it will give the tortillas a slightly different flavor than using regular vegetable oil. But I've used olive oil before and they're still delicious. Enjoy!

My pleasure 😊 glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!

Thank you Jessica. So happy you noticed the small details and hard work I put into it. Happy cooking!

My pleasure and happy to hear this!

Believe me, if I can make them and they turn out so good anyone can! They are super easy to make. You'll want to keep making batches. Enjoy!

Thank you!! 💗

Hope you enjoy, thank you!

Hi Rose! I'm sure they come out great. Do let me know. Thanks!

Thank you so much, Melissa! Enjoy your homemade tortillas.

Yes, you absolutely can roll them out then cook -- I just do it this way because once I get going I can move quick. 😊

My pleasure!

My pleasure! Wow, that's crazy. You can make a really large batch and freeze them for later use. I used to do this and I'd place a piece of plastic wrap or waxed paper between each tortilla -- make sure they are cooled down. Then just defrost them as you need them. Enjoy.

Mexican Made Meatless I will an thank❤you.......

Nothing like a homemade tortilla -- specially when made by our grandmothers.

That’s exactly why I pulled this video up

Thank you so much for trying the recipe, we're so glad to hear this!

Thank you so much Anie, glad we could be of help!

There are no animal products in this recipe, traditionally lard is used to make flour tortillas. Thank you!

Hi Dean! Chickpea flour doesn't have any gluten like the all purpose wheat flour I use for my flour tortillas. I've never used chickpea flour to make tortillas, and can say every time I've used it to make any sort of flat bread it always cracks.

Ok thanks, yeah it must be the chickpea flour. It’s good to know I wasn’t doing anything wrong. I’ll try all purpose flour in the future. Thanks!! @@MexicanMadeMeatless

Hey Dean- you may never see this reply but if you do, save that chickpea flour to make lots of other things with it like vegetable pancakes and chickpea tofu. You may have heard of these dishes. The chickpea pancakes are sometimes called Chilla and other names at Indian cooking sites. Also many other cultures (French,Spain) make these, they are usually savory and are delicious.

@@basilsorbet7314 I hope he does see your comment. Great tips, thanks so much for sharing them.

Thank you!

You're most welcome

It's on medium heat. You want the heat higher but do keep an eye on them so they don't burn. Enjoy!

@@MexicanMadeMeatless update: I've successfully made it. Thx for the recipe & your guidance!

Thank you, so happy to hear it!

Hope you enjoy

Thank you Christina!

😊 enjoy!

Ancient mexicans were almost vegans.

Beans and wheat tortillas are pretty much my Mexican boyfriend's diet lol

Hi Jhenina, I'm so sorry your tortillas turned out dry and stiff. :( Ok so the tips I have for you is to make sure that the dough has enough water added to it, I live in a hot and humid place so if you live in a dry cooler area you'll need to add more water. Do so one tablespoon at a time, compare it to the way my dough looks like before I let it rest. Also do make sure you let it rest plenty so the flour is well hydrated. Next tip is that when you're rolling out the tortillas don't use too much flour. You see everytime we add flour to the dough when rolling it out, it drys is out and will cause the tortillas to be dry and stiff. When you roll out the tortillas also don't roll them out too thinly, this too causes them to be dry and it's easier to over cook them, which of course will also cause dry and stiff tortillas. Last tip is to not over cook the tortillas. You want them to look just a little blistered and change color but not brown. You'll notice that ones that are cooked as they should be are flexible and soft, overcooked ones are dry and crack. Thank you so much for trying my recipe, I hope you give them another try and do let me know if I can be offer any more help.

Hey ☺ thank you for responding to my comment.. I tried doing it again last night and it went great ❤ I tried adding a little bit of water and kneaded it for 10mins 👌 Turned out to be soft and perfect for rolling! 😍 Thank you so much for your help! And oh, I am your new fan ☺☺☺ continue cookin'! You are such an inspiration! 🤩

Yay, that makes me so happy to hear! Enjoy your tortillas and thank you so much. 💗

You must have put too much of oil or you left it on the fire to long

Thank you for visiting, sending loves back at you amiga!

Thank you!

My pleasure, enjoy!

They stay soft.

These stay soft but like any bread when they are stored in the fridge they will harden up a bit but all you do is warm them up and they'll be soft again. Try not to roll them out too thinly and don't use too much flour when rolling out because these 2 things will cause hard tortillas. Enjoy!

Thank you! 😊

Thanks!

Thank you!! 💗💗

Thank you!

i subscribed to your lovely channel, pls do the same and subscribe for mine, ty!! have a nice day

Yes you can!

@@MexicanMadeMeatless muchas gracias!

de nada & enjoy!

Hi Julia! Yes you can and they make great chips. I mostly do sweet with some fresh fruit for a healthy dessert. Here's my recipe for that mexicanmademeatless.com/healthy-cinnamon-sugar-chips/ Enjoy!

Keep in mind that "tortilla chips" are usually made of corn, not wheat.

Yes, that's the kind I use. Enjoy!

You can but keep in mind that the flavour will be quite different. Enjoy!

Thank you!

Thank you too

Hi you could use any oil you like but I recommend sticking with a bland one so that your tortillas don't get a flavour from the oil. Thanks

Hi Moana, I've never used baking flour so I can't tell you exactly how the texture will change, but you can of course give it a try. Thanks!

No, no oil needed. Use either a seasoned cast iron pan or a nonstick pan. Enjoy!

I've never tried it without oil, I think it would affect the soft texture...you could try vegetable shortening.

Hi! With homemade flour tortillas I wouldn't recommend it because they will dry out. Unfortunately. Store-bought ones seem to hold up better maybe because of the preservatives.

Is it the flour we use to cook buns?

Hi Leonard! It's all purpose flour, the one available at any supermarket. Thanks.

Hi Han! Sorry that's happening to you. The reasons that's happening could be that not enough water is being added to the dough. Don't be afraid to add more you can always add a little bit of flour back to bring the dough together. I also really suggest you not skip letting the dough rest. This allows the liquid to fully be absorbed and get a good texture on the dough. Lastly another reason could be that when you're rolling them out you're dusting with too much flour. Try not to use so much. Also try not to roll them out too thinly and not to cook until crispy. Hope this helps. Do let me know if I can help any further. Thank you!

Sure but of course they'll turn hard like chips. Enjoy!

I would definitely suggest letting the dough rest so the flour hydrates well and they're easier to roll out. But flour tortillas are always a bit chewy. Enjoy!

Hi Faride, you need to add a little bit of flour to your fingers but also make sure that you allow the dough to rest so that it's fully hydrated, this makes it all come together and less chance of sticking to your fingers. Thanks!

Yes, that's exactly the flour used in my recipe & video. Thank you and enjoy!

They'll last more than a week. Just keep them dry so no moisture gets on them and causes spores. Enjoy!

Yes you can, enjoy!

Oh no, so sorry to hear this. It's probably because too much flour was added or not enough water was added. Depending on the weather where you live you need to make minor adjustments. Give it another test adding a bit more water at a time until your dough is soft and pliable and do make sure that you let it rest so that the liquid really soaks into the flour and creates that elastic dough. Thank you!

Just dust your hands with a little bit of flour, don't use too much or the tortillas will be too dry.

Thank you Hadia!

Hi! I've never used almond flour to make tortillas. I don't think they'll hold so yeah a mix of wheat flour would be recommended, ideally just wheat flour is best. If you're looking for a gluten-free option there's corn tortillas, of course.

Good question. I love almond flour. Got some almond meal - could that work in this somehow ?

@@CrystalRicotta See the above reply.

12 medium tortillas, you can double or triple the ingredients to make larger batche. Enjoy!

As she said, Yes.

I've never tried freezing them, test it out and see what happens. Thank you!

Enjoy!

You can find the written recipe here mexicanmademeatless.com/flour-tortillas/ Enjoy!

Sorry, I do not.

Use gluten free flour.

Gracias!

Don't worry because the taste is more important than the shape. It took a lot of practice for me to get circles and if you look closely, mine are far from perfect round circles. Enjoy your effort and tortillas. :)

@@MexicanMadeMeatless thanks I will, I was searching for tortilla recipe because in most recipes they just use store bought, your video is really nicely made and straight to the point great content (: I don`t mind it not being round I made a lot of pizzas literally never made 2 that look the same xD

Thank you and keep making those pizzas and tortillas!

Not exactly the same thing, but both delicious in their own right. Thanks!

@@MexicanMadeMeatless yep!obviouslay not same but kind of same .thankyou for your answer its an honour💖

Love indian food, love from México.

Just keep practicing, it took me some time to perfect it but once you get it you got it. ❤♥

No, it's not necessary. I've experimented with and without and have never found I needed it to get the tortillas to inflate. You can of course add it if you'd like. Thank you!

Yes it does take a little bit of time, but if I showed it in real time the video would be quite long. LOL Thank you, Tina! :)

Sorry about that Jany! It was one of the first videos I created and was still learning. You can get the written recipe on my blog, I hope it helps! mexicanmademeatless.com/flour-tortillas/ Thank you!
