Gluten Free Teff Flatbread

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Brown Teff Flour
• 0.5 cups Tapioca Starch
• 1.25 cups Warm Water
• 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea Salt
• 1 teaspoon Honey(optional)
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic Powder(optional)
• 2 tablespoons Additional Olive Oil for frying

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the teff flour, tapioca starch, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.

2. 2

   Make a well in the center and pour in the warm water, olive oil, and honey.

3. 3

   Stir the mixture vigorously with a wooden spoon until a smooth, thick batter forms; it should be thicker than pancake batter but pourable.

4. 4

   Let the batter rest for 10 minutes to allow the teff flour to fully hydrate and the xanthan gum to set.

5. 5

   Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron griddle over medium heat and lightly brush with olive oil.

6. 6

   Pour approximately 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot skillet and spread it into a 6-inch circle using the back of a spoon.

7. 7

   Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges look dry and small bubbles appear on the surface, then flip carefully.

8. 8

   Cook the second side for another 2 minutes until browned and cooked through, then transfer to a clean towel to keep warm.
