Flatbreads on water

Cookinero 3 Mar 2025

Flatbreads with water and flour are a salvation if you have neither bread nor the desire to bake it. They will be a great addition to breakfast or first courses. Fluffy flatbreads with water are easy to make. And they are much healthier than yeast bread, as they are prepared with baking soda or baking powder. If you replace some of the flour in flatbreads without kefir and yeast with bran or coarse flour, you will get an even healthier option. The recipe for flatbreads with water will show how easy it is to make such a substitute for bread in a frying pan.

How to cook Flatbreads on water

Step 1

Flatbreads on water

Start kneading the dough. Slightly warm the water and add oil, garlic and salt. Add baking soda with a pinch of citric acid or baking powder. Gradually add flour, knead a soft dough that does not stick to your hands. Then roll the dough into a ball, place it in a bowl and let it “rest” for 10 minutes, covering the bowl with a lid. Then continue kneading the dough, adding flour. When the dough is soft and no longer sticks to your hands, wrap the dough in cling film and leave for 10 minutes.

Step 2
