Step 1
Blend the flour and salt together in a bowl then stir in the mashed sweet potato until the flour is completely absorbed. If the mixture seems wet and sticky then add a couple tablespoons of flour (some sweet potatoes have more moisture and will require a bit more flour). Allow the dough to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 2
Dust the counter top with flour and shape the dough into a log then divide the dough into 8 to 10 portions and roll them into small balls.
Step 3
Coat the dough balls well with flour and roll them out until they are about 1/8 of an inch thick (roughly the thickness of 2 quarters stacked on each other). If you want to make tortillas then roll them out a bit thinner.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick pan on medium to medium low heat and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. I like to flip them every 30 seconds to ensure they don't get too brown, if they are browning too fast I turn the skillet down a tad. If the dough puffs up as it cooks, just push the air bubbles out with a spatula.
Step 5
Once each flatbread is cooked, stack them on top of each other and keep them covered with a dish towel. This is the secret to making sure the bread stays soft. The towel will hold in the steam as they cool down, keeping them soft.
