Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup warm milk or warm water
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 475°F. Then set out a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Set out a large mixing bowl. Combine the flour, warm milk, olive oil, and salt. Mix by hand until the dough comes together into a firm ball. Then knead the dough for several minutes until it is completely smooth.
- Separate the dough into as many pieces as desired. (This recipe will make 4 tortilla-sized pieces, 2 larger pieces, or 1 extra large pizza-sized piece.) Roll out the dough pieces into extremely thin rounds. You still need to be able to move the dough onto the parchment paper, but the thinner the better.
- If making communion bread pieces, use a pizza cutter to cut the circles into small half inch squares. (see images)
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the bread is golden brown and slightly bubbly on top. It's making snack crackers, bake for 10 to 12 minutes until crisp.

- Feel free to season your unleavened bread any way you like! Consider adding a little cayenne pepper, garlic powder, or dried herbs over the top.

- Let the bread cool before transferring to an airtight container. Keep at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the fridge for 4 days.
- To freeze: Once the bread has cooled transfer it to an airtight plastic zipper bag. If stacking, I suggest sticking pieces of parchment between the pieces. Squeeze all of the air out and seal the bag before storing it in the freezer for up to 4 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight or on the countertop for an hour or so.
