Flour Tortillas

[Chrissyb]

I really miss the nice fluffy flour tortillas mmm with butter and honey or sometimes cinnamon and sugar, yummy. I have tired the rice tortillas on the market but they are just not the same. Does anybody have a good recipe that is close to the wonderful good old flour tortillas.

My husband just reminded me of another question, if I want to take an recipe lets say for raspberry bars and it calls for 3 cups of flour do I use the same amout of Pamelas baking mix or any other flour mix I am using.

Thank you all for your help. I love this site. It rocks.

I posted the recipe I use under "Taco Shells" on June 14th. It should be on page 7. I have never used Pamela's baking mix, sorry.

Has anyone tried recipezaar #302922? Its a gluten-free(vegan) tortilla recipe. I am going to try it tomorrow for my daughter who doesn't want to eat dairy, meat or eggs.

I have done limited substituting with Pamela's mix (although the few things I make with it, I really like), but if my recipe said 3 cups of flour, I would use 3 cups of Pamela's, and not add any salt or baking soda/powder listed in the recipe (because they are already in the mix).

Report on recipe #302922. They were good, texture was dry when rolling but I should have used a bit more water. I made them almost like the recipe, the flour choice makes them healthier. I used 1/4c. sorghum instead of chickpea, 1/4 c. Bob's gluten-free mix in place of 1/4 of rice. I used xanthan gum b/c I didn't have guar gum. They were very similar to Bette Hagman's recipe that I have used many times.

However, the first one cracked so I had another and it cracked and broke. I would try to make them again just to see how they turn out. But I think I will try Bette Hagman's with a bit of sorghum and some flax in place of some of the rice flour next time I make them. I am not fond of bean flour like what's in Bob's gluten-free mix. Over all I rate them a 7 out of 10 being best. Remember they are dairy free so that's a plus.
