Soft, golden, and blistered at the edges, homemade skillet flatbread can be on the table in under 30 minutes using just four ingredients found in almost any kitchen. No yeast, no oven, no rising time — only a bowl, a rolling pin, and a hot cast-iron skillet stand between you and fresh bread. At a cost of under $3 for six flatbreads, it may be one of the most practical recipes a home cook can have.

- —No yeast or oven — just a skillet
- —6 flatbreads for under $3
Four pantry staples and a $3 budget are all it takes
The ingredient list is deliberately short: 2 cups of all-purpose flour, ¾ teaspoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¾ cup of warm water. A tablespoon or two of olive oil or melted butter rounds out the dough and keeps the skillet from sticking.
