I started making my own corn tortillas with flour and water but the pan gets scorched, any cooking tips?

First pic is the pan after cooking, 2nd pic are the tortillas... the blackened edges and spots match the blackened lines on the pan.

The recipe said flour and water with no oil, the tortillas turn out great but the pan is always blackened by the end of it and I have to scrub away with Barkeepers Friend.

I set the pan to 6/10 heat on a glass top stove, wait 6 minutes for it to heat up and then start making tortillas 2 at a time. The first pair and sometimes second pair don't blacken at all but over time it starts getting more and more black and the tortillas blacken as well. The recipe said it should only take 30 seconds per side and that the tortilla should puff up when it's done but mine take about 1.5 minutes per side and don't puff up at all. Am I cooking at too low a heat or too high a heat?

Anyone made corn tortillas before?
