Flatbreads: A World of Possibility

Flatbread is one of the simplest forms of bread and nearly every culture around the world has its own version. From wraps and sandwiches to pizzas, most cultures have some form of flatbread.

Crust
You can certainly make your own dough but for ease and consistency I purchase the dough. First cut it into 4 or 6 pieces. You can form the crusts using flour, but I found that using olive oil on the dough really helps it spread out and it also helps make a nice crispy crust. I start the out on a cutting board and then put it in a 10" nonstick pan and continue spreading to the edges using fingers. Then I bake or toast them in a pan until just starting to get brown spots. Now they are precooked and just need to go under the broiler with toppings.
