Flatbreads

Flatbreads are made across the world, and are the preferred variety of bread in North African countries, India and most of the Middle East. These breads are made using both unleavened and leavened doughs; although both have a general flat shape, leavened flat breads tend to be a bit taller than unleavened flat breads, with a softer texture.

In this section, we've put together information about flatbreads from around the world, from English crumpets to Mexican tortillas, and from Scandinavian crispbreads to Indian chapatis.
