This tortilla journey is so relatable! I love how you shared your childhood memories of fresh tortillas. It’s a bummer your daughter’s lactose – sensitive, but kudos for experimenting. I’m curious, which oil ended up being your favorite substitute? And did you find a new store – bought tortilla that rivals Central Market’s butter ones?

As a young teenager I made lots of homemade bread and tortillas. Pretty sure I used crisco in both. I’m trying an experiment and will be using coconut oil as the shortening ingredient in a batch of tortillas. Keeping my fingers crossed but if they don’t turn out right, I’ll try the olive oil.

In reply to Chelsea. I hope you enjoy these. If your tortillas are too crispy, try turning down the heat a little. They should always be soft when you take them off the riddle. Store them in a covered container or dish towel to keep them soft and warm.

Yum! These look so soft and yummy! I have never found a good tortilla recipe that is soft like these. Thanks for sharing!

In reply to SouthernMessMom. Let me know how they work out. If you want to use butter, just substitute melted butter for the oil.

I’ve been able to add half whole wheat and half white wheat without any problems.

In reply to Deb. I'll be sure to stop in again and join on Saturdays. If you get the chance to make homemade tortillas, you'll won't be sorry. They are so much better than anything you get at the store.

They are very easy and extremely delicious! They are great with everything from tacos/burritos to wraps for sandwiches. As a dessert, brush with a little melted butter or melted coconut oil and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Mmmmm Mmmmmm.
