Add all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl, and knead it with your hands or in a stand mixer with a hook attachment until it reaches a soft, sticky dough consistency. Let it rest for at least an hour in a floured bowl. Sprinkle some flour on top, and cover with a cloth.
Divide the rested dough into 4 equal parts and roll them into balls by hand. Put the balls on a floured plate and cover them, so they do not dry out.
Take one of the dough balls you have prepared to a floured counter and sprinkle more flour on top, then expand it by pressing lightly with your hands. Then, roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it is 18 cm/7 inches in diameter. Sprinkle flour on the bottom and top, cover it with a cloth and set aside.
Heat a non-stick pan, take one piece of dough, and cook it until golden-brown spots appear on both sides. Continue until all the dough is used. Due to the heat of the pan, the baking process will get shorter with each subsequent piece of dough. Make sure to check both sides occasionally.
You can enjoy it by spreading butter on your hot flatbreads.
