Ingredients (for 4 small flatbreads)
- 1 cup whole wheat or all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup milk (or plant-based milk)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 small garlic clove, finely minced (or ½ teaspoon garlic powder)
- A pinch of salt
- Fresh parsley or dried herbs (optional)
Instructions
1. Make the Liquid Dough
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, minced garlic, and herbs. Slowly add milk and olive oil while mixing until you get a smooth, pourable batter — slightly thicker than pancake batter.
2. Cook the Flatbreads
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan and spread it gently into a circle.
- Cook for 1–2 minutes on one side until golden, then flip and cook the other side for another 1–2 minutes.
3. Add Finishing Touches
Brush the warm flatbreads with a little olive oil mixed with crushed garlic and parsley for extra flavor.
Tips for the Best Result
- Use a non-stick pan to avoid sticking.
- Adjust the milk slightly if the batter feels too thick.
- For crispier flatbreads, cook a bit longer on low heat.
Serving Ideas
Serve warm with hummus, yogurt dip, vegetable stew, or even as a healthy pizza base.
