Description
A simple recipe for making soft, fluffy flatbreads at home.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 3/4 cup warm milk
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil (or other neutral flavored oils)
- 1/2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp instant yeast
- 3 1/2 cup all purpose flour (plus more for dusting the surface)
Instructions
- In a large bowl mix water, milk, oil, sugar, salt and instant yeast.
- Slowly add in the flour and mix using your hands or stand mixer until the dough comes together. This would take between 8 to 10 minutes. The dough will be a bit sticky.
- Rub a bit of oil all over the dough and place it in a large bowl. Cover and let it rise for 40 minutes. (I usually let mine rise in an “off” oven)
- After 40 minutes, gently deflate the dough and divide it into 10 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball. Cover them all with a kitchen towel so they don’t dry as you cook them. Let the dough balls sit for 15 minutes as you heat the pan.
- Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Flour your surface and your rolling dough very well. Place a dough ball on the surface and roll it out to be very thin.
- Place it on the hot pan and cook for 45 seconds to one minute. There will be bubbles. Flip and cook on the other side for about 30-45 seconds. Place the bread on a plate and cover with a kitchen towel.
- Repeat with the remaining dough.
Notes
- For best results, make sure the baking surface is well floured to prevent sticking.
- These flatbreads can be used for wraps, sandwiches, or served with dips.
