Making this version of Indian Un-Fried Bread is akin to making a batch of pancakes. Some people prefer their pancakes thick; some thin.
Adjust this recipe by increasing or decreasing the amount of water used.
Indian Bread Recipe for Dieters
1 cup of all purpose wheat flour
1 ½ tsp of baking powder
¼ tsp of salt
water, amount will vary depending upon desired consistency
Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Slowly add water until your bread reaches your desired consistency.
You will want to cook the bread using medium-heat.
If your burner is too hot, your bread will burn and will not get done in the center.
If it's not hot enough, your bread will be tough.
Next, either pour or spoon the bread into the skillet. Allow the bread to brown on one side before turning. Place on paper towel.
Serve hot with no-calorie butter spray and your Chicken Tortilla Soup, or as a desert with the butter spray and a couple of spoonfuls of honey.
