Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (or any cooking oil)
- 3/4 cup warm water (adjust as needed)
- Optional: finely chopped herbs (like parsley or cilantro) for added flavor
Instructions:
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Add the oil and water: Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, add the olive oil, and gradually pour in the warm water. Mix together until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add more water, a tablespoon at a time.
- Knead the dough: Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, until it becomes soft and elastic.
- Let it rest: Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Roll out the dough: After resting, divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle about 1/8 inch thick.
- Cook the flatbread: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place each rolled-out dough circle onto the hot pan and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until lightly golden brown and puffed.
- Serve and enjoy: Stack the cooked flatbreads on a plate and serve hot. Optionally, brush with a bit of olive oil or butter for extra flavor.
