Breakfast Tortillas

Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
salt, table
leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate
oil, olive, salad or cooking
water, bottled, generic

Directions:
Put flour, salt, and baking powder into a mixing bowl.
Mix the shortening or oil into the flour mixture until it forms pea-size balls.
Add the lukewarm water, a little at a time, until the dough is soft and pliable.
On a floured surface, knead the dough until smooth, for 1 to 2 minutes.
Place in a bowl, cover with a clean dish towel, and let it"rest" for 30 minutes.
Knead dough and form 8 to 10 balls.
Roll them out as thin and round as possible.
Preheat an ungreased griddle or cast-iron frying pan.
Heat about 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a frying pan and cook the raw tortilla on both sides until puffy and light golden brown, about 45 seconds altogether.
Drain on a paper towel.
While tortilla is hot, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
Cut in quarters to make it easier for kids to hold.
