Skillet Flatbread
This simple and delicious flatbread is perfect for wraps, sandwiches, or as a side to your favorite dishes.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 cup warm water (adjust as needed)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough:
In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Gradually add warm water, stirring until a dough forms. - Knead the Dough:
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. - Let it Rise:
Place the dough back in the bowl, cover, and let it rest for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size. - Divide and Shape:
Divide the dough into 2-3 portions. Roll each portion out into a flat round, about 1/4-inch thick. - Cook the Flatbreads:
Heat a skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium heat. Place a rolled-out portion on the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden spots appear. - Serve Warm:
Brush with olive oil or butter for extra flavor if desired, and enjoy!
Tips
- Skillet Choice: A cast-iron skillet ensures even cooking and a perfect golden-brown finish.
- Adjust Water: Depending on the flour’s absorbency, you may need to add more or less water.
- Flavor Boost: For extra richness, brush the flatbreads with olive oil or melted butter right after cooking.
Enjoy your homemade flatbreads warm and fresh!
