Frequently Asked Questions:
Soft and thick tortilla bread recipe
Can I make this recipe without a seltzer?
The seltzer makes the tortillas a bit airier, but regular water will do in a pinch.
Can I make this recipe without a cast iron skillet?
For this recipe, cast iron works best. If you’ll use a Teflon-coated pan, make sure it has a nice, dense bottom.
Can I skip the honey in this recipe?
We wouldn’t recommend it. The honey is crucial for the texture, but you might get away with using sugar instead.
Are the tortilla bread gluten-free?
No, the original recipe isn’t gluten-free, but you can always swap the flour for a gluten-free substitute. Red Mill’s 1:1 blend would work well in this case.
How can I store the homemade tortilla bread?
Yes, it’s possible to freeze a batch for 1-2 months. That said, nothing beats the texture of freshly made tortillas!
