I found this recipe on a "From Scratch" website. I've got to admire the people who have multiple children, AND cook from scratch AND take time to blog about it AND, in those blogs, mention that they also think it's a great idea to have their own gardens, grow their own vegetables, and raise their own livestock!
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1 1/2 t. baking powder
1 t. salt
2 t. oil
3/4 c. warm milk
Combine ingredients and knead until firm and soft. This took me about 5 minutes. Then I let it rest for 20 minutes.
I formed it into 8 balls and let them rest for another 10 minutes.

I formed it into 8 balls and let them rest for another 10 minutes.
Then I rolled each ball as thin as I could (I was aiming to make 8" tortillas and usually got about 6-7") and then cooked them on a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until lightly browned & usually a little bubbly. These weren't quite as flat as store-bought tortillas, but they tasted great and worked really well in a quesadilla casserole I made.
