Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (plus extra for cooking)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Dough:
    • In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.
    • Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
    • Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
  2. Rest the Dough:
    • Place the dough back in the bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes. This helps to relax the gluten and makes rolling out the dough easier.
  3. Divide and Roll Out:
    • Divide the dough into 4-6 equal pieces, depending on how large you want your flatbreads.
    • Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten and roll out each ball on a lightly floured surface until about 1/8 inch thick.
  4. Cook the Flatbreads:
    • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Brush the surface with a little olive oil.
    • Place a rolled-out piece of dough in the hot skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden brown spots appear and the bread is cooked through. Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
    • Repeat with the remaining pieces of dough, adding more olive oil to the skillet as needed.
  5. Serve:
    • Serve the flatbreads warm, brushed with a little extra olive oil if desired. They can be enjoyed plain or with your favorite toppings or dips.

Enjoy your super simple and delicious pan flatbread!
