Homemade tortillas are the most easy bread you can ever make. They are so easy to make and so difficult to mess up. They taste much better than the store bought ones. They are softer, buttery and chewy. Actually, it was my first time making tortillas bread at home. But the best part, there no yeast no rising time.

you maybe don’t care to make tortillas at home. Tortillas are always available at grocery stores and really affordable camping to other breads like baguette or brioche! but ones you’ll make it, it will be your favorite part of a Mexican dinner at home to you and your family.

I make them now weekly. I freeze the leftover for may weekdays breakfast of lunch box wraps.

i like to make hearty omelette wrap with this tortillas for breakfast or even for a quick dinner when I add some spinach, tomato and cheese to it.
