Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.75 cups Water
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Step 2
Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and add the olive oil and water.
Step 3
Mix the ingredients together with a wooden spoon or your hands until a rough dough forms.
Step 4
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Step 6
Using a rolling pin, roll each ball out into a thin, round flatbread about 6–8 inches in diameter.
Step 7
Heat a dry, non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
Step 8
Place one flatbread on the hot skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes until bubbles form and the bottom has golden spots.
Step 9
Flip the flatbread and cook the other side for an additional 1–2 minutes until lightly browned.
Step 10
Remove from the skillet and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you cook the remaining flatbreads.
Step 11
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
