Flatbread
Instructions
Tips
No one wants to eat dry and heavy bread so make sure you go easy on the dough when kneading it – handle it with a light touch. This will give you fluffy and puffy bread that begin to form huge bubbles once it hits the heated pan. Bake the bread until the surface is bubbling and the bread has a golden colour.
Tips
Our flatbread are suited for freezing, so you can easily prepare them in advance to save time and simply defrost and reheat the bread whenever you need them. Once they have cooled off, wrap them in baking paper and place them in an airtight container before transferring them to the freezer.
