from mycookingjourney.com

Aish Baladi is an ancient Egyptian Flatbread made with 100% Whole Wheat flour and is Vegan. If you are looking for a rustic flatbread to use a wrap, this is the perfect recipe for you.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups Whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 tbsp Active dry yeast
  • 2 tsp Sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp Salt
  • 1/2 tbsp Oil
  • 1/4 cup Cracked wheat bran
  • 1 1/4 cup Warm water (more or less as needed to make the dough)

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of the stand mixer, add about 1 cup of warm water along with the sugar and yeast and mix well. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let it sit for about 10 minutes or until it is frothy and bubbly. If the yeast mixture does not bubble up after 15 minutes, it means that the yeast is inactive and start with a new batch.

  2. 2

    Once the dough has doubled in volume, divide it into 8 equal balls.
