Instructions
- METHOD:Put the oven on to heat up to 200 C.Decide if you are going for savory or sweet :)Mix the flour with dry ingredients, add oil and water.Mix it all either in the machine with bread dough attachment or use your hands to knead everything :) I go old school, I knead it on a wooden board for 5-6 minutes.Form a round ball and let it sit for 30 minutes. It won't grow, but it will rest :)Once the oven is hot and the dough rested, form small balls and use a roller or just your hands to flatten the bread.You can make it really thin 1-2 mm and it will be like a cracker bread or make it a bit thicker and you will get more doughy flat bread. The one I made is up to 5 mm thick.Use a fork to pierce the bread.Before placing it in the oven, use baking paper with a little bit of olive oil spread on it, place the breads on top, brush the surface with a bit of olive oil.Bake depending on the thickness you chose, 5-15 minutes - check not to burn them.Enjoy!Best eaten fresh, they will get hard when stored too long, I keep them in a cotton bag or cloth and warm them up the next day in a 50 C oven or in a toaster till they get warm.
