These were great, thank you! I made them with spelt flour and topped them with a little olive oil and grated Parmesan tonight as an alternative to garlic bread ... Yummy!

ohhhh sounds great!

I just calculated the weight watchers points in case anyone is interested (as I use both sites) and its 2 points per (assuming the 6 flatbread servings). Can't wait to try, husband is very interested too, but have a question please:

When you put them in the oven do you put it on a baking sheet? Directly on the oven rack? Do you use the middle level rack? Do you turn them halfway? I know, I know, a lot of questions, but never made flatbread before!

Thanks in advance!

I divided the dough into 6 and rolled it out, it's quite wet so you have to put them on a baking sheet (floured, or onto baking parchment so they don't stick). I didn't need to turn them.

Yum! May use this for flatbread pizzas!

Looks easy enough. My inner breadaholic is rejoicing at the very idea.

I'm from the UK, what volume are you using for "cup"?

are these bready or pancakey?

They are.... flatbread-y lol. It's more like thin pizza crust like.

They freeze great too, just place a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper between each one so they don't stick together.

Did you freeze the dough or the baked flatbreads?

I'm going to make these this weekend with a spicy chicken recipe I've also just seen.

Thanks!

I'm trying this tonight, but I also wonder if you freeze the dough or the baked breads? Seems to me both are possible I just want to know which way would be better

personally, i would freeze them after cooking. The dough is quite wet - i think freezing would make them very very sticky.

I'm new to these message boards, so forgive this question: when you say you "bookmarked" something, do you just mean on your computer, or is there a feature on MFP to do it?

For those using these at pizza crust, do you bake them first then add the toppings and re-bake or do you put the toppings on and bake the entire thing at once?

Similar to the "Homemade Flour Tortilla' recipe I use:

2 Cups Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 Tbsp lard or butter
3/4 Cup Hot water

Whisk flour, salt and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Mix in lard [I use butter] with your fingers until flour resembles cornmeal. Add water and mix dough until it comes together. Place on lightly floured surface [I use a silicone mat and brush it lightly with butter - less messy] and knead until smooth and elastic.

Preheat skillet over med-high. Using rolling pin, well floured [once again, I run a little butter over it with my basting brush] and roll into a thin tortilla. Place in hot skillet and cook until bubbly and golden. Usually about 8 - 10 seconds on each side. Yield: 6

I love them... so easy and the dough rolls well; great consistency and texture... thinner the better in my opinion and so cheap!:happy:

Going to try, would be lovely for lunch with spicy chicken, thanks x

I froze the baked version, but I too think that freezing the dough should work.

When I do mine, I bake the dough for 10 minutes, then put the toppings on, and broil until cheese is melted. However, that is just my method.

Thanks much! I was thinking that sounded like the best method, but thought I'd ask ;-)
