Patty Pan Tortilla

Here is the secret recipe for the tortillas in the grilled vegetable quesadillas that Patty Pan Cooperative has been slinging at Seattle-area farmers markets for many years. The Expresso flour is the star, adding a hearty, nutty flavor to a tortilla that stands up to just about anything you want to pile on top of it.

8 tortillas, 8"-10" in diameter

Ingredients:

2¼ cups (324g) Expresso Bread Flour plus more, if needed

1 (5g) teaspoon salt

1 (220g) cup water

  1. In a medium-size bowl, mix together the flour and salt.

  7. Repeat with all remaining tortillas.
  8. Serve with your favorite choice of toppings.
