  • Tortillas
  • 2 c. King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 c. butter (1/2 stick) softened
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 c. water (1/2 to 3/4)
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla Topping and Filling
  • 4 Tbsp. butter melted cinnamon-sugar berries if you like

Directions

  1. Manual Method: In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the flour and the oil. Gradually fold in the water and salt. Knead briefly, just till the dough is smooth.
  2. Bread Machine Method: Place all of the ingredients into the pan of your machine, program for Manual or possibly Dough, and press Start. Cancel the machine and remove the dough when it's smooth, after about 5 min of kneading.
  3. Divide the dough into 8 pcs. Round them into balls, flatten slightly, and allow them to rest, covered, for at least 30 min. This resting period improves the texture of the dough by giving the flour time to absorb the water, and it also gives the gluten time to relax, making the tortillas easier to roll out.
  4. Preheat an ungreased cast iron griddle or possibly heavy frying pan over medium heat. Working with one piece of dough at a time, roll it out till it's about 8 inches in diameter. Fry the tortilla in the ungreased pan for about 45 seconds on each side. (Or possibly, if you have a tortilla baker - use it!). For storing tortillas longer than a couple of days, chill or possibly freeze them.
  5. Assembly: Brush each tortilla with a bit of melted butter and sprinkle with some cinnamon-sugar. Turn the tortillas over, and add in some berries, if you like - blueberries, blackberries or possibly raspberries work particularly well. Roll up the prepared tortillas (the butter and sugar will be on the outside), and place them on a lightly greased cookie sheet; line them up next to one another to keep them from unrolling.
  6. Bake the tortillas in a preheated 375 F. oven for 10 min, till some of the sugar has caramelized on the bottom and the top is crisp and brown. Eat warm!
  7. Yield: 8 tortillas
  8. NOTES : The following sweet tortilla recipe is not deep-fried, like those you'll find at a fast-food restaurant. Chewy rather than crunchy, these tortillas are still yummy; they're kind of like rolled-up cinnamon toast, and are wonderful eaten side-by-side with a dish of vanilla ice cream. At this time of year, we like to fill them with berries before baking; the berries soften and hot a bit as they bake, and team well with the cinnamon-y tortillas.
