gluten-free flatbread recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup gluten-free flour mix (I use a British brand, FreeeFoods – it contains only clean, natural ingredients)

  • Approx. 1/4 cup boiling water

  • Pinch of salt

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin (EV) olive oil

Directions:

Place the flour and salt in a large bowl, then pour in the boiling water.

Mix with a spoon for about one minute, until the dough starts to come together into a ball.

Add a tablespoon of olive oil and mix briefly.

Sprinkle some gluten-free flour on a clean surface or a large chopping board. Place the dough on the surface and start kneading it with your hands. Add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.

Knead the dough for a few minutes until it has a soft but elastic texture.

Divide the dough into two equal parts, then roll each piece out with a rolling pin.

Cook each flatbread in a large, dry frying pan over medium heat for about 4 minutes per side, or until lightly browned.
