Navajo Flatbread




From Jessica: This recipe was easy and good. I’m trying to spare my yeast so it was nice this didn’t have any.

2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 cups lukewarm water
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons canola oil

Addition 1-2 tablespoons canola oil for frying.

Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and oil in mixing bowl and add most of the water. Continue mixing and adding water until the consistency of tacky pizza dough.
Knead for a few minutes.
Let rest in the bowl for 30-60 minutes.
Divide into 6 pieces and roll very thin (tortilla thickness) onto a flour surface.
Heat cast iron skillet or griddle to 350° and add 1 tablespoon oil. Heat oil til hot but not smoky hot. Cook until golden brown spits appear on one side then flip and cook other side. Jessica used some for pizza and some for dessert with cinnamon, sugar, honey, and butter.
