Ingredients

• 240 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 180 milliliters Warm water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum until well combined.

Step 2

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the olive oil and warm water.

Step 3

Stir with a wooden spoon or dough whisk until a dough begins to form. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.

Step 4

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for about 2-3 minutes until smooth.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and roll each portion into a ball.

Step 6

Using a rolling pin, roll out each ball into an 8-inch diameter circle, ensuring the thickness is even.

Step 7

Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat.

Step 8

Once hot, place one rolled-out piadina into the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until light golden brown spots appear.

Step 9

Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Step 10

Serve warm with your choice of fillings such as cured meats, cheeses, and fresh vegetables.
