### 🔥 How to Make It

#### 1. **Mix the Dough**

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the water and olive oil until a soft dough forms. Add a bit more flour if it’s too sticky.

#### 2. **Shape the Dough**

Knead the dough gently for 1–2 minutes on a lightly floured surface. Then divide it into 4–6 equal pieces and flatten each into a round, about ½ inch thick.

#### 3. **Cook in a Skillet**

Heat a skillet (cast iron works best) over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil. Cook each piece for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and puffed. Press down lightly with a spatula to ensure even cooking.

#### 4. **Serve Warm**

Brush with more olive oil or melted butter, and enjoy right away!

### 🍽️ Serving Ideas

* Dip into hummus, tzatziki, or marinara
* Use as a base for flatbread pizza
* Wrap around grilled meat or veggies for a quick sandwich
* Serve alongside soup or stew
* Add garlic butter and herbs for an instant garlic flatbread

### 💡 Tips for Success

* Use warm (not hot) water for a softer dough
* Add chopped herbs, minced garlic, or shredded cheese for flavor
* Leftovers? Reheat in a skillet or wrap in foil and warm in the oven
* Gluten-free flour blends can work, though the texture may vary
