Combine 2 cups of organic all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt in a bowl.

Mix the dry ingredients together until evenly combined.

Add 1 tablespoon of softened butter and mix until crumbly.

Gradually add 3/4 cup of warm water and mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured board for 1 minute.

Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces and roll them into balls.

Cover the dough balls with a towel and let them rest for 15 minutes.

Roll each ball out to about 8 or 9 inches in diameter using a rolling pin.

Heat a dry cast-iron skillet over medium heat.

Cook each tortilla for about 1 minute on each side until lightly browned and bubbly.
