When the mix is done add it onto a well buttered baking tray, I made them in a muffin tray because is easier to take them as finger food to a picnic but it can easily be done in a one single tortilla.

step 11
If you’re making them in a muffin tin bake for 20 to 25 minutes, if you’re doing it as a single tortilla bake for around 35 to 40 minutes. When done, put them on a cooling rack. This tortilla can be eaten hot or cold I prefer to eat it at room temperature or slightly warm.

Serve and enjoy!
