Ingredients
- 300 g plain flour plus a little by for dusting later
- ½ tsp salt
- 50 g butter
- 185 ml milk
- ½ tbsp oil for cooking
DISCLAIMER
I recommend using the Metric measurements (instead of cups & spoons) for more accuracy and better results.
Instructions
- Heat the butter and milk until the butter is just melted. Either on the top of the stove or in a microwave.
- Now add the flour to the butter/milk mixture with the salt and mix until combined.
- Flout the work top then knead the dough until smooth - it doesn't need much kneading. Add extra flour if the dough is too sticky..
- Wrap with cling wrap and rest at room temperature for 30 minutes or so.
- Dust the work top with flour, cut dough into 4 pieces, roll into balls, then roll out into about 1/8" / 0.3cm thick rounds.
- Heat 1/2 tbsp olive oil in a non stick pan over medium heat/low
- Place one flat bread in the pan, cook for around 1- 1 1/2 minutes - it should blister on the surface then flip and cook the other side, pressing down with a spatula if it puffs up. There should be a smallish golden brown spots on both sides.
- Stack the cooked bread and keep wrapped with a tea towel - the moisture helps soften the surface, making them even more pliable.
- Continue to cook with remaining pieces.
- Optional: Brush or spray bread with olive oil or melted butter, for a more luxurious finish. Or even with melted butter mixed with minced garlic for a garlic butter version!
Paul's Tips
You can freeze these Flat Breads, also the raw dough will keep in the fridge for 3 days, just ready to cook.

Thanks, I made your Scottish butter cookies–great, easy and lover by all the family. Today Ill try your flat bread, looks like a lot of butter but we will see. regards from Denmark Niels
Hi Zaner, it sounds like you made the dough too wet. Sometimes it’s necessary to adjust the water depending on how dry the flour is. Tis can change with how the flour has been stored, also the weather. Thanks you your feedback. x

Made the flatbreads but they were sticky trying to get them in the pan stretching out of shape which made the ends soggy. Otherwise they tasted great.
