Flatbread for Peggy

I made this bread (without yeast) for Peggy.


Unleavened Spelt Bread

Mix:
  • 1/2 cup quick oats
  • 1/4 cup spelt flour
  • 2 T. cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1-1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 T. butter
  • 1 cup boiling water
Let sit, stirring occasionally, until mixture cools to lukewarm.
Gradually add  as much of  2 cups spelt flour as you can.  Turn out onto floured surface and knead with additional spelt flour, unbleached if you have it, until smooth and not too sticky.  Divide into 3 pieces and roll each piece into a circle, approximately 8 inches across.  Place on greased baking sheet that has been sprinkled with a little cornmeal - should be able to get 2 rounds on your sheet.  Prick with a fork and bake at 350 for about 30 minutes, until slightly browned.  Remove from oven and brush tops with butter.

Cool and enjoy.  Store in gallon-size zipper bags.

Update 4/11: I doubled this recipe and made 4 rounds from it.
