✨ The Homemade Flour Tortilla Recipe My Grandma Swore By

Some of my favorite recipes aren’t written in fancy cookbooks… they’re the ones passed down from Grandma. ❤️

These homemade flour tortillas are soft, buttery, and perfect fresh off the cast iron pan. Add a little butter and green chile, and you’ve got a little piece of New Mexico heaven. 🌶️✨

Simple ingredients. Simple memories. The kind of recipe that brings everyone into the kitchen before they’re even finished cooking.

Saving this family favorite here so it never gets lost. 🫶🏼
