Servings: 8

Ingredients

All-purpose flour
3 cups
Baking powder
1 tablespoon
Salt
1 teaspoon
Sugar
1 tablespoon
Milk
1 cup
Vegetable oil
1/4 cup (plus extra for cooking)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the milk and vegetable oil. Stir gently until a soft dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead the dough gently for about 5 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic. Be careful not to over-knead.
  4. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a round flat disc, about 1/2 inch thick.
  5. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil.
  6. Place the discs of dough on the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip and cook for another 5 minutes on the other side.
  7. Once cooked through and golden brown, remove from the skillet and serve warm.
