Flatbread Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Add olive oil, salt, and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

  3. 3

    Shape the Flatbreads

    Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten each ball into a round disc about 1/4 inch thick.

  4. 4

    Cook the Flatbreads

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Keep warm in a towel while cooking the remaining flatbreads.
