Looking for a fast and simple way to make fresh tortillas without the hassle? This 5-minute liquid dough tortilla recipe is perfect for busy days when you want something homemade, soft, and delicious — with no kneading, no yeast, and no oven required. All you need is a bowl, a pan, and a few basic ingredients!
Ingredients (Makes about 6 medium tortillas)
- 1 cup flour (all-purpose or whole wheat)
- 1 cup milk (or plant-based alternative)
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
- Mix the Batter:
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, egg, olive oil, and salt until you get a smooth, pourable batter — similar to pancake batter. - Heat the Pan:
Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a drop of oil or a quick wipe using a paper towel. - Cook the Tortilla:
Pour a ladle of batter into the center of the pan and swirl it around to spread thinly, just like you would for a crepe. - Flip and Cook:
Cook for about 1–2 minutes until bubbles form and the edges lift easily. Flip and cook the other side for another minute. - Serve Warm:
Remove from the pan and keep warm in a clean towel. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Tips & Serving Ideas
- Use them as wraps for veggies, eggs, or chicken.
- Turn them into breakfast quesadillas or simple roll-ups with hummus.
- Add herbs or garlic powder to the batter for extra flavor.
