Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder until well combined.

Incorporate the Fat: Add 1/4 cup of lard or unsalted butter into the flour mixture and work the fat into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Form the Dough: Gradually pour in 3/4 cup of warm water and stir with a fork until a shaggy dough begins to form.

Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for 2-3 minutes until smooth.

Divide and Shape: Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces and roll each piece into a smooth ball.

Let the Dough Rest: Allow the balls to rest for 15 minutes, covered, to relax the gluten.

Roll Out the Tortillas: On a floured surface, flatten one ball of dough and roll it into a thin circle about 7-8 inches in diameter.

Cook the Tortillas: Transfer the rolled tortilla to a preheated skillet and cook for 30-45 seconds or until lightly browned.

Keep Warm and Repeat: Remove the cooked tortilla and keep warm in a cloth while repeating the process.

Serve and Enjoy: Serve your homemade flour tortillas warm with your favorite fillings or dishes.
