## Equipment

- Large mixing bowl
- Grater
- Mandolin or knife
- Baking Tray
- parchment paper
- Convection oven

## Tips

- Cold water helps create a lighter, airier texture that will bake up crispy.
- Using high-quality olive oil is key.
- For a gluten-free option, substitute the all-purpose flour with a 1-to-1 gluten-free baking flour. You may need to adjust the water amount slightly to achieve a smooth dough consistency.
- A conventional oven works too! Simply bake at the same temperature but monitor the flatbread closely, as it may need a few extra minutes to get crispy
