Flatbreads

 

 

 

 

 

These flatbreads or tortillas are super easy to make and can be used to create  wraps. I find wraps tend to work well as portable training snacks as they are soft and fairly robust, and can be used  with a variety of different fillings depending on your requirements.

Preparation time:

5 mins prep (+/- 30 mins resting) + 10 mins cooking time

Ingredients:

( Makes 8 medium sized flatbreads)

  • 1 cup plain white flour
  • 1 cup Rye or Spelt flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup water

Instructions:

  1. Combine the ingredients in a bowl and mix together
  2. Knead the mixture on a lightly floured surface for a few minutes until you get a smooth dough
  3. Ideally allow the dough to rest for about 30 minutes (this step is preferable but not crucial)
  4. Divide the dough into 8 pieces and shape into rounds
  5. Roll each round into a thin flatbread
  6. Heat up a frying pan (no oil required) and add a flatbread to the pan once hot
  7. Cook one side for 30 – 60 seconds until it starts to develop brown spots
  8. Flip over and cook the other side for a similar amount of time
  9. Repeat for the rest of the batch
  10. Wrap the freshly cooked flatbreads in a clean tea towel to prevent them from drying out and becoming crispy – you want them soft and moist in order to use them as wraps
