• 1 cup warm water
• 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, yeast, salt, and sugar

Add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients

Mix until a dough forms

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size

Preheat your oven to 475F 245C

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 8 equal portions

Shape each portion into a ball and then flatten it into a disc about 1/4 inch thick

Place the discs on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cover them loosely with a clean towel

Let the discs rest for about 15 minutes

Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until puffed up and lightly golden brown

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving
