I agree with Lovina; God Bless You! I just made these! Actually, I made both the sorghum and the millet. I did the sorghum first. Thought maybe I needed a tad more water, because the edges wanted to kind of break open instead of staying nice and round. Still turned out awsome though. Next I made the millet. I used whole millet that I ground in the dry container of my Vita-Mix. Also turned out excellent!! I did add 1/4 tsp. of sea salt to the water with millet. I had two yummy spinach and "homemade" salsa wraps for lunch. I also placed the hot,"cooked" tortillas in a covered dish. I used to do this with my whole wheat tortillas to keep them pliable. Worked great with these also. Only thing is that mine didn't puff at all when I dry fried them in my large stainless steel pan. They were still great though. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Probably a ridiculous, beginner question.....but, do you add any oil to the skillet for cooking? Also, can you store them? One more question: how did you make them into chips? These would be great for kids lunches & the chips would make a welcomed snack. Thank you!!!! This recipe is so exciting!!

These were amazing! One quick tip for those who do not have a tortilla press. You can put your ball of dough between the plastic and use a large plate to press down. You will get the perfect circle every time this way! Just be careful not to press to hard so not to break the plate. This dough is very similar to dough used for corn tortillas using Masa (corn flour). A cast iron skillet that is well oiled and seasoned would be much better than a frying pan for sure! Practice makes perfect! Hello! These were amazing! One quick tip for those who do not have a tortilla press. You can put your ball of dough between the plastic and use a large plate to press down.

My 4yo son is slightly sensitive to wheat flour and very sensitive to corn. So I've been stuck making these rice and garbanzo mix flour tortillas which crumble very easily. These sorghum ones are fantastic. They are just like wheat flour tortillas and are so very pliable!! Thank you thank you thank you. I am Mexican and man did I miss my tacos (real Mexican tacos with soft corn tortillas). And my son's favorite thing use to be bean burritos. Well I made these tortillas today and he had 4 burritos! I think I'll try the boiling water method with different flours. I had never heard of that method before. You are a genius! My 4yo son is slightly sensitive to wheat flour and very sensitive to corn.

I use a medium sized stainless steel saucepan and start with the heat on medium high. Later the heat gets turned down to low (as indicated). I hope your husband enjoys the recipe.

It is 6 am dec 18 and I sincerely ask God to bless you for posting this recipe. My husband is a celiac disease patient and coming from a pakistani food loving family with wheat as main dietary ingredient it is so hard to make the transition to a wheat free diet. Thank you and will post once i try this recipe. I have a question what pot do you use to cook the flour and the heat level required while cooking the dough. Next i am going to buy the whisk n griddle. God bless. I have been anxious looking for gluten free options. It is 6 am dec 18 and I sincerely ask God to bless you for posting this recipe.
