Tibetan Flatbread: Breakfast Edition

Quite a while back, I came upon this recipe for Tibetan flatbread and I love it.  It's quick and easy to throw together, making it the perfect addition to any meal.  I generally add a little bit of sugar and whatever combination of spices I feel like delighting my taste buds with at the time.  Recently, I've created a breakfast version that includes one of my favorite spices: cinnamon.

Breakfast Flatbread

1/4 c. AP flour
1/4 c. whole white wheat flour
1/4 c. rolled oats
1 Tbsp. brown sugar, approximately
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
ground cinnamon and ginger (add as much or as little as you like)
1 tsp. vanilla, approximately
1/2 c. water

Mix all but the last two ingredients.  Add the vanilla and water and stir until combined.

In a cold, 8-in. frypan, add a little bit of vegetable oil.  Pour in the dough and spread it out evenly.  Sprinkle a little bit of water around the edge of the pan.

Cover and cook over medium heat for about 8 minutes or until the underside is browned.  Uncover, flip, and brown the other side, approximately 4 minutes.

Remove from the pan, slather with butter, cut into wedges, and enjoy!
