   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2               cups  whole wheat flour
   2               cups  all-purpose flour
   1 1/2      teaspoons  salt
   1 1/2      teaspoons  baking powder
   2        tablespoons  canola oil
   1               cups  warm water -- to 1 1/4C

These can be used as a tortilla or as a flat bread.

Whisk the two flours, salt and baking powder together in a large 
shallow bowl. Add canola oil and 1 cup of the water and mix to form a 
dough. Add enough additional water until the dough comes together. 
Knead 10-15 times then let the dough rest, covered with a towel for 
five minutes.

Divide the dough into 18 equal pieces. Run your hand under a running 
faucet and shake off the excess water. Wetting your hand will keep 
the dough moist as you roll. Roll each piece into a ball and place on 
cookie sheet, not touching each other, and cover with a towel. Allow 
dough to rest five minutes.

Line a cookie sheet with foil.

Keep the dough balls covered with the towel as you work. Sprinkle 
counter with flour and keep rolling pin floured as well. Remove one 
dough ball from under the towel and place on the floured counter. 
Press gently with your hand then use floured rolling pin to roll into a circle.

Roll dough, flip it, roll it, flip it, and roll again until circle is 
about 7-8" in diameter. Tortilla will be very thin. Place tortilla on 
foil lined cookie sheet.

Repeat this process until cookie sheet has a single layer of 
tortillas (about three), then place another layer of foil on top and 
continue the process until all 18 tortillas are rolled out.

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place tortilla in 
preheated pan and cook, one at a time, for about 30 seconds per side.

After the first 15 seconds you will see bubbles begin to form.

Place cooked tortillas on a foiled lined baking sheet in the same 
fashion as when you rolled them out.

Use tortillas immediately or allow them to cool completely, then 
store in a plastic zipper storage bag in the refrigerator for up to 
one week. To reheat, remove from zipper bag and place in a dry 
skillet over medium-high heat. Heat one side, then flip and heat the 
other, just enough to heat through.
