Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

- Roll each dough ball into a thin circle, approximately 6-7 inches in diameter.
- Cook each flatbread for 1-2 minutes per side until bubbles form and brown spots appear.
- If desired, brush the hot flatbreads with melted butter for extra richness.
- Stack cooked flatbreads and keep covered with a towel to keep warm and soft.
Notes
- Using boiling water partially cooks the flour, resulting in a tender flatbread.
- Store cooled flatbreads in an airtight container with parchment paper between each piece.
- Flatbreads can be frozen and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
