Step 3

Roll each portion into a 6-inch round, about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each flatbread for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown spots appear and the bread is cooked through.

Step 5

Serve warm as a side, wrap, or pizza crust. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

For best results

  • For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based cottage cheese alternative and gluten-free self-rising flour.
  • Make sure the skillet is hot before adding the flatbread to get those beautiful golden spots.
  • If you prefer a thicker flatbread, roll to 1/2-inch thick and cook a bit longer.

Variations

  • Add herbs like rosemary or thyme to the dough for extra flavor.
  • Top with shredded cheese and sauce for a quick flatbread pizza.
  • Use whole wheat self-rising flour for a fiber boost.
