Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 cup Ground flaxseed
- 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Warm water
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground flaxseed, tapioca starch, baking soda, and salt. Whisk these ingredients together until evenly mixed.
Step 2
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the olive oil and warm water.
Step 3
Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a wooden spoon or your hands, until a dough forms.
Step 4
Knead the dough lightly for about 2-3 minutes until it becomes smooth and pliable.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten into a disc approximately 1/4 inch thick with your hands or using a rolling pin.
Step 6
Preheat a cast-iron skillet or a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Step 7
Place one disc of dough into the hot skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the flatbread is golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Remove the cooked flatbread from the skillet and keep it warm by covering it with a clean kitchen towel. Repeat the process with the remaining dough portions.
Step 9
Serve the flatbread warm, either as an accompaniment to a meal or used as a wrap. Enjoy the nutty flavor and hearty texture of this Whole30 compliant bread.
