Notes:  I made these for our annual morning train/parade outing. They are easy to put together but mashing them to cook is another story. I ended up using my hands to mash the dough, then placing it on the frying pan. I also tried mashing the dough while it was on the frying pan, which also worked a little bit. My dough made enough flatbread for about 6 small sandwiches (we are talking slider sized sandwiches). We filled ours with almond butter. The original recipe uses eggs, but I used ground flax to keep the recipe vegan. Note: 1 tsp baking powder = 1/4 tsp baking soda + 1/2 tsp cream of tartar I like to use this mix instead of commercial baking powder.

Ingredients: 1/2 cup coconut flour 1/4 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/2 cup non-dairy milk 2 flax eggs (2 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 6 tbsp water, allow to sit for 3-5 minutes)

Instructions: 1. Mix the dry ingredients in bowl, breaking up lumps. 2. Add milk and flax eggs to dry ingredients and stir together. The batter will thicken up. 3. Using your hands, scoop out some of the batter and form a ball, then squish into a flat patty. Place carefully onto a greased pan and cook on medium heat until both sides are dark golden brown (about 3-6 minutes per side). Be careful when flipping!
