πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Instructions

Whisk the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl.

Mix in the lard with your fingers until the flour resembles cornmeal.

Add the water and mix until the dough comes together; place on a lightly floured surface and knead a few minutes until smooth and elastic.

Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Use a well-floured rolling pin to roll a dough ball into a thin, round tortilla.

Place into the hot skillet, and cook until bubbly and golden; flip and continue cooking until golden on the other side.

Place the cooked tortilla in a tortilla warmer; continue rolling and cooking the remaining dough.
