Why This Recipe Works
These breads are naturally flavorful thanks to chickpea flour and sesame seeds. They are called journey bread because they stay soft and delicious even when traveled with, making them the ultimate road-trip snack.
Instructions
1
Rub the oil into the flour and spices until it looks like fine crumbs, then gradually add water and knead for 5 minutes until you have a soft, pliable dough.
2
Roll the dough into small circles and place onto a hot pan, waiting for the edges to whiten and bubbles to form before flipping.
3
Drizzle each side with oil and press down with a spatula to ensure even cooking; the bread is ready when no dark, doughy spots remain.
