Whole Wheat Flatbread

Susiecat too's Note:

Kind of like a chapati, a flat pita, or a whole wheat tortilla. It is thin, perfect for scooping up dips or rolling into wraps. You could probably make these on a grill, too, and they would be lovely. These turn out to be around 6- or 7-inch diameter breads, more or less. If you want larger breads (think burrito-sized) then cut these into 8-10 pieces instead of 12.

These were great, I used them with Chicken Caesar Wrap and it was a great combo for a quick lunch. I doubled the recipe because I was worried that it would not yield enough, and I am glad it did. I got 12 out of a doubled recipe. This was also using my rolling pin to help make them thin. Thanks for the recipe!

love it, it makes super yummy pita chips, i brush olive oil and cook them in the oven at 400 until crisp and put a ton of spices on the top. really great! oh, also, i use all wheat flour and if theres enough spices and salt itll taste great.

This was a very good flatbread, and I fried it in oil as I didn't have a griddle. I think I used a little too much oil as they came out a bit too greasy.
