This Easy Skillet Flatbread Recipe is so delicious and versatile. No yeast needed! Perfect as a pizza crust, hummus dipper, and for enjoying with soup.
Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
Whisk the olive oil and non-dairy milk or water together in a small bowl.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while stirring. When the dough becomes too thick to stir, use your hands to form it into a soft ball. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour (I added another tablespoon). If it’s crumbling and not holding together, add another teaspoon of water.
Place the dough in the bowl and cover with a kitchen towel. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into four equal pieces and roll into balls. Use a rolling pin or the palm of your hand to flatten each ball into 6-inch diameter rounds, about 1/4-inch thick.
Pour a teaspoon of olive oil into a skillet and warm over medium low heat. Working one at a time, cook the flatbreads for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown, adding more olive oil to the pan as needed.
Enjoy the flatbreads warm or cool them to room temperature and store in the fridge or freezer.

jenn on 2020-11-21 (5 stars): My first attempt at flatbread ever, love the easiness. I added garlic powder and dried coriander and made a side dish for our Saturday night Indian food. It went down very well and is a keeper.
Samantha on 2020-12-14 (5 stars): This recipe is incredible! Reminds me of the coating on a pigs in a blanket and I am here for it!!!
Annika on 2021-10-20 (5 stars): First ever homemade flatbread and wow. It's perfect. Light, fluffy, perfectly salted, and crispy on the outside. I used almond milk for this, and it came out super delicious. Thank you for this insanely simple recipe!
Mary on 2022-05-23 (5 stars): My go-to flatbread recipe! Sometimes I add a tablespoon of za’atar into the mix. So delicious, easy and a real crowd pleaser! Thank you!
Kaye on 2022-09-16 (5 stars): Love! It's so easy, and customizable. I do half of the oil with sesame oil and and green onions and its so delicious. Would love to try with cinnamon and make it a sweet bread.
Bri on 2022-09-30 (5 stars): Super easy to make and the best bread I’ve made so far! I used unsweetened almond milk and it came out great. I used the bread for wraps my first batch, and plan to make a new batch for mini pizzas and dipping bread for my soups.
Christine on 2022-11-27 (5 stars): This was incredible! I made this today. I used avocado oil instead of olive oil because I didn't have any olive oil, and it was just delicious. I'll make this more often from now on :-)
Making little pizzas with these is a great idea!
Sisi on 2023-02-11 (4 stars): Um... Yeah, this bread is easy and delicious, but olive oil is not very good for cooking, because it burns, better would be grapeseed oil for example.
Cristina on 2025-02-01 (4 stars): Well this came out as hard tack lol. Elven bread anyone?! :) Having said that, it may be "user error" rather than the recipe's fault, and it was actually really tasty combined with some sandwich-filler style topping. Anyway, I just fried one and left the remaining 3 chunks of of dough (rolled out) in the fridge so will experiment with cooking temperatures etc and hopefully get a softer result next time!
Lisa O on 2023-03-15 (5 stars): WOW! This was SO good! I made it with whole wheat pastry flour, as my husband avoids all white flour. It was beyond easy and super yummy. Great, quick accompanyiment to soup! Thanks for sharing!
JamrockAngie on 2023-04-05 (5 stars): Yasssss just what I needed
Shonte on 2023-07-15 (4 stars): Idk why but first time i made this it was alittle salty and im not sure had a strange aftertaste so i re did it and used slightly less salt, used half olive oil and half vegan butter and BOOM . Delicious
Brittney on 2023-09-02 (5 stars): Absolutely amazing. I used vegan butter with herds to brush the finish product. Definitely a keeper. Thank you
HILARY M MCKIE on 2023-09-19 (5 stars): These have now become a staple in our house! So easy and fluffy and with a vegan daughter they really please us all.
Jude on 2023-11-15 (5 stars): What a find, thank you! I hated all the plastic that came with store bought bread. I used GF flour and it’s pretty great! Not as fluffy as regular flour but still tasty!
Emberly on 2024-01-07 (5 stars): Easy to make, and delish. I added 1 tbsp flaxseed, Italian seasoning and parsley. Very tasty. I need to perfect my cooking but I really like this recipe.
Faye on 2025-07-11 (5 stars): I’m not a vegan, I just recently found out I’m allergic to so many things. Can this be made with cows milk? I’m going to assume so, but wanted to double check! I need bread in my life, but allergic to soy, oats, egg whites, coconut, apples all the thing you could normally do a swap with.. Ty
Victoria on 2024-06-19 (5 stars): I was looking for a good eggless flatbread recipe. I made this with dark rye flour, decreased the salt to 1/4 tsp. and added rosemary. Obviously very versatile! Thank you.
Sadie Holmes on 2025-06-03 (4 stars): This is a good base recipe but too salty!! Would recommend cutting to 1/2 tsp or less. Made as a side for veggie curry.
