Flatbread

Quick, easy and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Flour; all-purpose
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Baking powder
  • 1 tsp. Sea salt
  • 2 Tbsp. Olive oil, more for griddling
  • 1 tsp. Maple syrup or other sweetener
  • 3/4 cup Water, cold

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Make a 'well' in the middle of the flour mixtures and add the wet ingredients: olive oil, maple syrup and most of the water. Save a bit of water to add later if necessary.
  • Switch to a rubber spatula and stir the wet ingredients into the flour mixture. If the dough seems too dry, add the remaining water. When the dough comes together, transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for 7 to 10 minutes until the dough is very smooth.
  • Cover with a clean dish towel and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into 6 pieces. Using your fingers, shape the dough into irregular circles to 1/4 to 1/8 thickness.
  • Using your fingers dimple the dough thoroughly.
  • Add about 1 Tbsp. olive oil to the griddle and heat to hot, but not smoking. Cook each flatbread for about 2 minutes or until golden brown. If the griddle gets dry, add more olive oil. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Cool and a rack.
