Quick & Easy Flatbread
Homemade flatbread smells and tastes amazing. Mine is more like pita bread or naan and you can use it to make your own gyros, pizza, focaccia, or dip it into hummus. No stand mixer? Mix by hand and knead about 50 turns. And always aerate your flour before measuring.- Jenny Jones
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Makes: Four 6-inch flatbreads
Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cups all purpose or bread flour
- 1 teaspoon yeast (dry active or instant)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup warm water (110° F for active - 120° for instant)
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
Instructions:
- Place flour, yeast, and salt into a mixing bowl.
- Add water and oil and beat for 1 minute.
- Place dough (it will be sticky) on a floured surface and cover with a towel. Let rest for 10 minutes.
- After 10 min., preheat a cast iron skillet to med-high.
- Divide dough into four and shape each piece into a ball.
- Roll each ball into a 6-inch circle.
- Cook on ungreased hot pan about 1 minute per side.
Notes: To make whole wheat flatbread use 1/2 whole wheat and half all-purpose flour.

I have been using this recipe for tortilla-making since I posted here in 2021. I now have just used it today for making four English muffins cooked in a skillet. I did six minutes a side in my induction burner at 354 degrees. This temperature needs to be tinkered with a bit. Since I have added dried and fresh herbs; fresh and dried garlic; and seeds this recipe never fails me! Now you can make four muffins on the stove top, why do anything else when you want flat breads or English muffins or even sliders. Since I am very old man, I like to make my “daily bread” every morning. Please do not expect big holes in the round muffins. I even began to figure out that process yet. Thanks Jenny for this recipe once again.

Made this a few nights ago – YUMMY!! The next time I did add Italian herbs, garlic powder, and a pinch of sugar to the dough. Right out of the pan, I brushed on garlic vegan butter and sprinkled it with chopped cilantro. Can’t wait to keep experimenting with flavors. Thank you once again, you are my “go to” .

We’re eating this now, hot right out of the pan. It was soooo good and Jenny’s video gave great tips. I wanted flatbread that had yeast but didn’t take 2 hours, like some recipes. This is the best of both worlds–the nice yeasty taste in a short amount of time. I think we’re going to make this a lot 🙂

Hey Jenny,
Sorry; I haven’t seen your show and only recently found out that you had one. However, I’ve been trying your recipes since March 2020 and love every recipe that I’ve tried. I couldn’t make bread before and now I do pizza dough, facaccia, cinnamon bread braid, etc. Thank you for all the easy to use recipes!Reply to this comment

Hi Jenny!
I love this recipe and wondered if I wanted to double it do I also need to use 2 packets of yeast? I have seen some bread recipes use at least twice as much flour with just 1 packet of yeast. I appreciate your opinion. Thank you so much for all your wonderful recipes and fun videos. I love them. 🥰. God bless you.

I love this recipe. It really is easy to make. I do not have a gas stove and there for I do not have a cast iron pan, but don’t let this stop you!!
I use a non stick pan on a glass top stove on high heat.
Although delicious as is, I add 2 teaspoons of Nigella Sativa seeds (can be found at an Indian grocery store, also known as black cumin seeds). This gives a gentle flavour of black pepper, oregano and onion.
Another method, I have used the BBQ. Delicious, but tends to be more crispy.

I was going over videos on you tube looking for an easy bread to make during this shelter-at-home order. I stumbled upon a nice, funny lady showing me how to aerate flour, alongside youtube suggested her flatbread, which I made and it was fantastic! I doubled the recipe and made extra. They were even better the next morning. I would have taken a pic but they all got eaten up! 🙂
I decided to learn more about this clever and humorous lady and was amazed to see it was Jenny Jones from my earlier years! I admire that this collection is not intended for profit, just for the love of cooking and sharing knowledge. It feels good to see what Jenny is doing with her time and energy, this is an example of how we make the world a better place. Thank so much, Jenny!

I’ve made this a few times and it always turns out well.
It’s also good for stuffed flatbread. I mixed up some mashed potato, onion, cheese, salt and pepper, and made balls of 3-4 tablespoons (ish). Roll out the dough to 4-5in, place the potato mix in the middle, seal it up like a dumpling, then roll it out to the normal size and cook as usual.

This is so good and so easy! I’ve done a lot of cooking and baking for a lot of years, but only recently decided to try my hand at making tortillas, and now flatbreads. Both are crazy easy to make and both are delicious!
Re: this recipe specifically . . . I made some mushroom barley soup the other day for some dinner guests, and thought I’d make a couple of French baguettes. Unfortunately, I didn’t allow enough time, so I quickly searched “Yummly” for something super quick to throw together . . .“Quick flatbread” (fingers crossed), and Bingo!! It’s wonderful!

Hello Jenny,
I had to redo this flatbread recipe because I was wondering what went wrong the first time I have done it and finally thought maybe it was the yeast or the temperature of the water. Made a nice batch and it came out really good and even better then what we buy. The whole family enjoyed. I left out the garlic powder in one batch and I have added a little garlic powder in another batch. Both came out fantastic. I had made a pizza with the flatbread and it really beats the naan bread we buy at the store. Thank you Jenny for simple and enjoyable recipes. I encourage for any recipe people try and it does not work,to try it again, because its worth it.Reply to this comment

Hello Jenny,
I have tried your no-knead bread and it is wonderful and I cannot stop making a two loaf per month. I decided why not try the flatbread and I did today. I have decided to put garlic powder about 1\4 teaspoon, it was too much to my liking. I will need to try a little less or none at all. I was a little disappointed because I have expected it would taste the same as the one in the store or better. Maybe I have done something incorrectly. I have two more which I will do a pizza tonight and let you know if it is better since I will put it in the oven. I may think that I have not cooked enough in the pan. I would like to know which olive oil you have used ? Everyone wrote they loved this recipe so maybe I may have done something incorrectly. I will sure try again, not giving up. lolReply to this comment

My mom and gma showed me how to make ‘fried bread’ when I was very young. I made it for my children all the time. They are all grown, 36 yrs old to 30, my youngest, and they still request mom’s fried bread all the time. My mom and gma also made fried corn bread like the fried bread and we all loved it. My kids even loved eating the fried bread with sausage gravy on it instead of the homemade bisquits for breakfast. They still eat my fried bread with butter and jam on it. Fried bread is one of the greatest recipes.

I would like to have your recipes for your fried bread and the fried cornbread. My mom made fried bread I loved it. She would make when she made chili. I grew up with it but sadly to say my mom passed away before I could get her recipe it was one of those that was in her head. I have tried to make it but it wants to break up. I knew what went in but had to guess how much. Hers was flour, Crisco in the can, salt ,milk. I hope yours might be the same or close to it. If not I would like to try yours. Thanks for your time.

These were so yummy,soft,quick and easy. I doubled the recipe and added a tablespoon of sugar just to have softer flavor instead of a plain salt bread. It turned out great! My dough was soft and fluffy and was easy to roll out. We used some for little pizza (we love pizza) and the rest I freeze in a Ziploc bag for when we need to make a quick pizza or sandwich. Just put your toppings over your frozen bread,pop them in the oven and they come out so crispy and tasting fresh. Great recipe (its my favor after trying at least 15 different recipes) Thanks for sharing!!

I use a large griddle for all my flatbread recipes because we eat it with soup pretty often and I can cook 3-4 at a time. I usually set it to 375 degrees F when cooking flatbread but the time per side will differ depending on the recipe and it’s ingredients. Hope that helps!

She’s using a gas stove which is generally a bit cooler than an electric stove in my experience. If you have an electric I wouldn’t go above medium for this, otherwise there will be burning and sticking and smoking.

Thank you so much for this recipe! This will be my favourite go-to bread when I don’t have hours to let regular bread rise, cook and cool. I doubled the recipe for our family of 6 (almost 7), and used the whole-wheat version. I had to use all my will power not to eat more than one, as I have to save enough for our lunch tomorrow. I smeared some butter on a freshly cooked one and devoured it! I know my family will definitely love it. May God bless you, Jenny!

I use this recipe all the time. Thanks, Jenny! I always double it and keep the extras in a ziplock bag in the fridge for quick use. I mix a container of pizza sauce and keep in fridge. Always cook extra sausage patties so as to have the leftover ones to crumble over the pizza along with pepperoni, onion, black olives, peppers and of course, lots of cheese. So easy to quickly put a pizza together and cook in the convection oven. Good, homemade pizza in a flash. I love this recipe, my pizzas love this recipe, my waistline? Eh, that’s another story. lol Thanks again, Jenny, for this wonderful, easy to make recipe.

I will never buy flat bread or tortillas again! I made the dough in my food processor, rolled half much thinner to experiment, perfect tortillas! Dough was so easy and fun to work with, thank you for making my life easier although you’re not so good for the economy, if I had gone to the store I would have returned with at least 10 other groceries items (mostly junk.)

Have all but given up flour – except what comes over from Israel as I believe that grain has not been messed with genetically. Kosher for Passover means, to me, that the grain is ancient and has had no alterations – same as G-d gave us from the beginning.

There is a company called Bread Beckers on the Northwest side of Atlanta that has wheat that is not GMO or treated with pesticides.
The email is breadbeckers.com and the phone number is 770-516-5000.
Check out the website.
I have 3 – 45 gallon pails of wheat berries( soft white, hard white and hard red) in my home and I grind my flour from this wheat to bake.Reply to this comment

I have only used cast iron so please look at other recipes to see if other pans can be used.

I don’t have a cast iron skillet. I make these all the time and just use a frying pan.

I have used a griddle, it’s larger and you can cook more than one at a time.

We moved to Maine and I can’t seem to find any decent pita bread where I live. But now I can make my own. I just made this recipe and it was so easy, quick, and they tasted so fresh and good. So much better than the packaged bread. I made fresh hummus and the two went together perfectly. Thanks for sharing this recipe. I can’t wait to make it again!

Thank you for catching my mistake. I should have just left it at half & half and will adjust the recipe. So it should be 1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp. of each flour.

Jenny, you are a delight, and an inspiration when I become bored of my usual fare. Your smile and bright eyes infect people with good feelings. Your site is a bright spot on the internet.
God bless you, and may you continue to show us just how easy it is to make things from scratch.

This is my new go to recipe! Thank you so much. I have a question. I’d like to cook this for a crowd, so just simply multiplying the ingredients. But it doesn’t seem prudent to multiply the yeast. Do you have any recommendations? I’m thinking about making 60 flatbreads.

I wish I could help but I have only made four at a time. You may have to look at other recipes to help with the amount of yeast.

Why not just make ahead and freeze? I just made four and froze two, double wrapped. Just love them.

Hi Jenny,
I love your cooking! Thank you so much for your great videos.
I am allergic to yeast. Would your bread recipes work with sour dough?
Kind regards,

Hello Jenny, I made this recipe this morning to try it out because I am looking for something else to use rather the buying a loaf of bread for my lunches. I let the dough sit for 10-15 min and it didn’t really rise. I used the correct temp of water. I rolled them out to six inch sized and they ended up around 4 inches by the time I got to them to put on my grittle. They cam out very good. But I’m not sure if they are suppose to be really dense or more fluffy. Not quite like a thick fluffy pancake but not dense. When I go to bent it as if into a taco shape it breaks. I did mix by hand for a min or two before I let it sit.
