Step 1

In a mixing bowl whisk together all of the ingredients except of flour.

Step 2

Start incorporating the flour into the mixture while mixing the dough with your hands.

Step 3

Depending on the strength of the flour you're using you may need to add a bit less or a bit more. Knead the dough for a minute or two until it feels very soft but without leaving fragments on your hands.

Step 4

Shape dough into a ball, cover with a tea towel and rest at room temperature for 2 hours.

Step 5

With a knife or dough cutter, divide the dough into 6 pieces.

Step 6

Shape each piece into a ball.

Step 7

Lightly flour your working surface, take the first dough ball and roll on all sides (flip it once) until you have a 19 cm / 7.4 inch round flatbread.

Step 8

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Dip some paper towel into a bit of oil (I prefer olive oil) and lightly grease the bottom of the pan.

Step 9

Add the first flatbread and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side (don't let the pan get smoky hot remove from heat to cool if so). Flip the flatbread using a flat spatula.

Step 10

You may add flatbreads on top of each other creating a pile until you're finished making them. This way they won't air dry and stay more "elastic" if you're planning to use them as wraps.
