How to make easy GF flatbread
Whisk together gluten-free all-purpose flour, chickpea flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder if using.
Make a well in the center and add the milk and the olive oil and mix until well incorporated. If the dough is to dry, you can add extra milk (a little, teaspoon by teaspoon), and if too sticky add extra flour. Don’t overdo it.
Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
Place the dough on a lightly floured surface (GF flour) and cut into 6 equal pieces. Shape into balls and roll out into 8’’, 2-3 mm thick oval shapes.
Heat a non-stick pan over high heat. Place one flatbread in the pan and cook for about 1-2 minutes. It should puff, and when the underside has golden patches on it, flip and cook the other side for about 50 seconds to 1 minute until has golden spots and puffs up again.
