Whole Wheat Piadinas or Italian Flat Bread

Ingredients

  • 4 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons salt
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon mixed Italian herbs (optional)
  • 6 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 cups ice water

Preparation

Step 1

Mix the ingredients in the order given. Stirring well between each item. You will need to knead it a bit by had at the final mix but do not over do it. Just a minute tops. Work fast & keep the dough tender.
The dough should be soft but easily rolled out. You may need to add a bit of flour or water depending on the weather and flour you are using.
Cut into 10-12 pieces. Roll out thin on an oiled surface, I use either olive or coconut oil depending on the weather. Coconut solidifies at 76 degrees.
Create disks aproximately 8 -10" round.
Prick the top of the bread with a fork and fry in a lightly oiled skillet or on a grill. These work well on the outdoor grill if they are oiled well.
They cook fast and should be tender.
Serve with any dish. I love them with soups in the winter and salads or grilled veggies in the summer.
