Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats processed into oat flour (see notes)
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 tsp yeast
- 1 tsp cane sugar
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ¾ cup lukewarm water
- ¼ cup olive oil
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients: oat flour, whole wheat flour, yeast, sugar, and salt, and mix with a whisk until evenly distributed.
- When ready, add the lukewarm water and olive oil. Remember to mix and fold with a nonstick spatula (do not use your hands; this dough is too sticky!). This will help prevent adding additional flour and water. Knead for two minutes.
- Cover the dough with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap for 45 minutes to an hour. The dough will not double in size. The goal is to relax it.
- Transfer the dough to a nonstick surface. Don't add flour to the surface. Shape the dough into an oval and cut it into six pieces. Each piece should fit inside a ⅓ measuring cup. Now, let's roll out the dough into tortilla-wrap-like shapes.
- Place a dough ball onto a piece of parchment paper large enough to where you can roll out a nice circle size wrap. Try your best to make a nice circle. If unable to, you still tried and still deserve a pat on the back. Now let's cook each one.
- Put a nonstick pan over low heat. Do not add oil. Lay the rolled dough on the bottom of the pan. As I mentioned a few times, cover the pan with a lid and cook on low for 1-2 minutes. Flip and continue to cook with the lid on for another minute or so. If you have dark blisters, you know the heat is too high.
- Finally, transfer each one to a bowl and wrap them with a cloth towel. This will help keep them moist and soft without the excess condensation that might make them soggy.
- Repeat until you have made all of your delicious flatbread tortillas.
- Enjoy once thoroughly cooled down; otherwise, they will not be as pliable. Serve with dinner, or use them as a wrap for any of your favorite sandwiches.

Notes
- To make oat flour, add 1 cup of rolled oats into a high-speed blender and process until a flour-like consistency forms (about 1-2 minutes). After transferring the oat flour to a bowl, I like to break up any lumps that develop during the process.
