Gather all ingredients.

Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Rub in lard with your fingers until the mixture resembles cornmeal. Add water and mix until dough comes together.

Transfer dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead for a few minutes until smooth and elastic. Divide dough into 24 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Use a well-floured rolling pin to roll a dough ball into a thin, round tortilla. Place into the hot skillet, and cook until bubbly and golden; flip and continue cooking until golden on the other side.

Place the cooked tortilla in a tortilla warmer; continue rolling and cooking the remaining dough.
