I made them for our small group vegan taco bar night and we loved them…just a wee bit too small…the recipe makes about 9 tortillas, don’t try to make more or you’ll have tiny tortillas…and the flatter you can roll them, the better…mine were a little puffy…but no matter the size or thickness, they are still yummy and super simple! I left the dough overnight after mixing it [ Read More ]
