Notes
Cook Tips and Variations:
Substitute chocolate for caramel.
To prevent plastic wrap from sticking to rising dough, spray wrap with cooking spray.
To prepare flatbread without a food processor, combine 2 cups flour, oats, granulated sugar , yeast, cinnamon and salt in large bowl. Heat water and oil as above. Add to flour mixture. Stir, gradually adding enough additional flour as needed to make a soft dough that pulls away from sides of bowl. Proceed as directed above.
