Fresh Homemade Corn Tortillas

Homemade Corn Tortillas

Have you ever wanted to make homemade corn tortillas, but were intimidated by the thought? They aren’t as hard as you think to make and the freshness makes your tacos, carnitas, fajitas, and burritos that much more delicious. All you need is a little Masa and a little water. This simple recipe makes buying store-bought tortillas a thing of the past. Making a triple batch and freezing the extras is a great way to have homemade corn tortillas available for unexpected guests or when you just have a craving for your favorite hispanic dish. Once prepared, you can  easily turn these into fresh tortilla chips too!

Author: April Decheine SkinnyOver40
Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 15
Ingredients
  • 1¾ cups Masa Harina
  • 1⅛ cups water - increase if needed
Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the Masa Harina and hot water thoroughly.
  2. Knead the dough until it is pliable, adding water if it begins to feel dry.
  3. Cover dough with plastic wrap and allow to stand for 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat a skillet to medium high heat.
  5. Divide the dough into 15 equal-sized balls.
  6. Using a tortilla press, press each ball of dough flat between two sheets of plastic wrap. If you do not have a tortilla press, you can do this with a rolling pin, but it will take a little more time.
  7. Place tortilla in the pan for about 30 seconds, flipping and allowing to cook another 30 seconds.
  8. Place in between paper towels until ready to eat.

    I love making my own tortillas, but when I tried corn, they just fell apart :( I'll have to give this a try again, and then buy a press, because I think rolling it out was my problem.
