Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rye flour
  • 1 cup natural yogurt
  • 2 tablespoon syrup; ex light molasses, honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Mix the baking powder and salt with the flour.
  • Mix the syrup and yogurt together. Add in the flour.
  • Mix into even batter with a spoon or with your hands. The dough should not feel too dense.
  • Cover a sheet pan with parchment paper. Lift chunks of dough with a spoon on the sheet pan, leave space between the balls. Depending on how big you want your flatbreads to be, make 5-8 of them.
  • Flatten the balls with your hands. Use rye flour in your hands and on top of the dough, since it is very sticky.
  • Poke your flatbreads with a fork. Bake at 440F (225C) for about 15 minutes in the middle rack.
  • Brush away the excess flour.

Notes

Stores at room temperature for 3 days. You can freeze your flatbreads.
You can replace the yogurt with soy yogurt or buttermilk.
