These four simple ingredients make delicious homemade tortilla shells the whole family will love. Takes about 6 minute to make the dough and then another 30 seconds to heat up a shell. A tradition you and your family will enjoy every Taco Tuesday Night!
Ingredients
  • 2 cups unbleached (or all-purpose) flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ cup oil
  • ⅔ cup warm water
Instructions
  1. Place flour and salt in mixing bowl. Add oil and mix for 3 seconds. With machine running, pour warm water in a steady stream. Let machine run until dough forms a ball. Dough should be a medium stiff consistency. It dough is too stiff, add a little more water.
  2. Divide dough into 12 to 15 equal pieces for small taco shells. Around 7 balls for larger shells. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at least 30 minutes before serving.
  3. Use a Flatbread Maker to flatten and cook the dough balls in 30 seconds! Click HERE to see the one we use that we got from Amazon. Here is a VIDEO of my husband making our taco shells using the Flatbread Maker.
