1 cup of wholemeal flour (can also use 1 cup of seed and grain flour) for variety.
1 cup of plain flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 tsp vegetable oil
3/4 of a cup of warm water
METHOD
Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.Then in another bowl combine the warm water and oil.
Add the water/oil mixture to the flour mixture, one tbsp at a time and mix (using a dough hook).Once water is mixed in, add another tbsp of water and repeat the process until all water is mixed into the dough.
The dough will be sticky.
Knead the dough for about 4-5 minutes.
Add a light dusting of flour to the dough when kneading.
The stickiness will eventually go away and you should end up with a nice smooth dough.
Let the dough rest in a bowl covered with a damp towel for 20 minutes.
Divde dough into golf ball size balls.
Place dough balls on a flat dish making sure they dont touch each other and cover with a damp towel for about 10 minutes

About 7-8" diameter, using a knife ( or plate) making them round.
Preheat a skillet adding NO oil.
