directions

  • In a large bowl place all dry ingredients, mix well. Make a well and add oil and water. Slowly incorporate the flour into the liquid until it forms a dough. If you need to add more water, add a tablespoon at a time until the dough is easy to handle.
  • Knead for a short time until dough is smooth. Cut into 4 or 5 pieces. Roll out thin to about an 8" circle (the thinner the better).
  • Heat a large skillet on a high flame, when hot reduce heat, brush with oil and place flat bread in skillet, prick bread with a fork. Turn over brush with more oil and cook other side. The bread will cook quickly, when done remove and repeat steps with rest of bread.
  • Very good to eat with sauteed greens such as escarole. This recipe makes about four or five 8" to 10" Piadinas.

  1. Very easy. I divided the dough into 8 pieces, and my husband grilled them! I topped those babies with a lovely bruschetta mix. Yummy yum yum. Thanks for posting. :)
     
  2. Very tasty and quick, too! Next time I will cut the salt in half, or leave it out entirely, as I found it too salty. I ended up with 12 pieces of flat bread, and they were rather thick. Next time I'll try to roll them so they're thinner.
     
  3. So so good. I could have easily gotten 8-10" servings from it though. They ended up pretty thick and nearly 12" just making five. Will be regularly making again though for flatbread pizzas!
     
  4. Agreed - this makes so many 8" pieces! I believe I made 8-9 pieces of flatbread - very easy!
     
  5. Quick and easy. But unappealing texture. Kind of bland flavor. Won't be making it again. I guess I'm partial to yeast.
