Bread maker flour tortilla

INGREDIENTS: 2 cups bread flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons shortening (1/4 cup oil) 1/2 cup water Alternatively 5 cups whole wheat flour 1 cup olive oil 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking powder 1.5 cups boiling water Flour Tortillas 2 c. flour ½ t. salt 1 heaping ¼ t. baking powder ¼ c. oil 2/3 c. hot water DIRECTIONS: Place all ingredients in your machine's fully assembled pan, in the order specified by your machine's manual. Select the dough cycle and press start. The dough should form a nice ball of dough. You may need to add a tablespoon of water or flour to get it there. When the dough cycle is finished kneading, stop the machine and remove the dough to a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough in to equal size chunks (1 chunk = 1 tortilla). On a lightly floured surface coat both sides of the ball with flour and roll out to a shape that is as round as you can get. Cook the tortilla in a heavy skillet that has a light coating of oil or pan spray. Cook for 2 minutes on each side or until there are little black burnt looking spots. Remove from the skillet to a plate and cover with a towel. The tortillas should not be stiff. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
