Although I wish I could make everything from scratch, I don't make tortillas from scratch too often because it all becomes too time consuming. It is a goal of ours to become self sufficient when it come to feeding our family with all our own home grown food. But, I still need some time management skills and to make these in bulk and freeze hah!

Homemade Flour Tortillas | I knead mine right in the bowl.

These flour tortillas freeze well in a large Ziploc bag with parchment paper between each wrap to ensure they don't stick together. But they need to be cooled completely before getting them ready for the freezer.

Homemade Flour Tortillas | After kneading, it is divided into 12 and rests under a towel for 30 minutes.

Making up a triple batch is great use of time to stick them in the freezer and have homemade tortillas in a pinch when you don't feel like cooking or there just isn't enough time in the day. We love using these to make banana sushi for the kids or these amazing Chicken Taquitos.
