Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add Water Gradually: Add water slowly while stirring until you form a soft dough. The consistency should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Knead Briefly: Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes on a floured surface until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Divide into Portions: Divide the dough into 4-6 equal pieces and form them into flat rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
Heat Your Skillet: Place a cast iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat. No oil is necessary, though a light coating helps.
Cook the Bread: Once hot, place each bread round on the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until golden brown spots appear, then flip and cook another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
Serve Warm: Remove from heat and serve immediately while warm. A pat of butter on top adds delicious flavor.
Pro Tips
Thickness matters: Thinner breads cook faster and crispier; thicker ones remain softer inside.
Temperature control: Medium heat is ideal—too high and the outside burns before the inside cooks.
Storage: Keep cooled bread in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Variations: Add herbs, garlic, or cheese to the dough for flavor.
