Add the flour, baking powder and salt into the bowl of your mixer, and whisk to combine. The moisture content of tortilla dough is relatively high, so it’s very sticky to handle. It’s best to let your mixer or bread machine do the work.
Slowly pour in the grape seed oil while stirring. After all the grape seed oil is poured in, the flour should resemble bread crumbs.
Crush out any lumps with your hand.
Next, slowly pour in the warm water, while stirring quickly.
Attach your dough hook, and mix the dough on low speed. This should not take long, mix only until the dough is smooth and even.
Sprinkle some flour on a chopping board to prevent the dough sticking. Using a silicone scraper or other tool, remove the dough from the mixer bowl and form into one shape on the chopping board. Cut into 12 equal sized portions.
Knead each portion by hand into a sphere and put them into a non-stick pot or a baking pan (the diameter of the baking dish below is 24 cm, perfect for 12 portions). Cover with plastic wrap and leave them to relax for 30 minutes.
The relaxation time can be longer, and it is perfectly fine to put the dough into the fridge overnight and cook them the next day.
