Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Fine semolina flour
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Instant dry yeast
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Semolina flour (for dusting)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, semolina flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the warm water and olive oil.
Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry using your hand or a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough sticks too much, sprinkle in a little more flour, but avoid over-flouring to keep the bread tender.
Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in it, and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let the dough rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
After the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release any air. Divide the dough into 2 or 3 equal portions, depending on the desired size of your flatbreads.
Shape each portion into a round ball, then flatten into a disc about 1/2 inch thick. Place the discs onto a baking sheet sprinkled with semolina flour to prevent sticking. Let them rest for another 15 minutes.
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, place one dough disc on the dry skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, flipping until both sides are golden brown and the bread is cooked through. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
Serve warm with your favorite Moroccan tagine, soups, or dips like hummus or zaalouk. Enjoy!
