Easy No-Yeast Flatbread
This Easy No-Yeast Flatbread recipe combines flour, salt, and warm water into a smooth, pliable dough that rests briefly before being divided and cooked on a hot pan. The flatbreads develop golden-brown spots and bubbles during cooking, creating a soft yet slightly textured bread that can be served warm. Keeping the flatbreads wrapped in a towel after cooking helps maintain their softness, making them suitable for wrapping or accompanying various dishes.

Notes
- Allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes after mixing to hydrate the flour and improve elasticity.
- Preheat the cooking surface over medium heat to avoid burning while ensuring the bread cooks properly.
- Watch for bubbles on the flatbread as a cue to flip it carefully to avoid tears.
- Keep cooked flatbreads wrapped in a clean kitchen towel to maintain softness and warmth.
