Ingredients

Instructions

  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a separate mixing bowl whisk together the oil and almond milk.
  • Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry.
  • Stir to form a dough, you may need to use your hands to bring it all together.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3-4 minutes until smooth. You may need to add a little extra flour as you go.
  • Place in a bowl and cover. Allow to rest for 1 hour.
  • Turn the dough out and divide into 4 equal parts, rolling each piece into a ball.
  • Working one ball at a time, roll out on a lightly floured surface to form a circle approx. 6 inch in diameter and ¼ inch thick.
  • Heat a large heavy based skillet over medium heat, add ¼ tsp oil to the skillet.
  • Add the flatbread to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes or until it begins to brown slightly and puffs up.
  • Flip it over and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  • Repeat with remaining dough, adding oil when needed.
  • Flat breads can be enjoyed warm or cold.
  • Store cooked flatbreads in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • Keep the dough balls covered with a kitchen towel or with plastic wrap when not using to prevent them from drying out.
  • Try not to have the heat too low when cooking as this will cause the flatbreads to dry out too much.
  • Cooked flatbreads can be frozen for up to 2 months.
