Piadina - #BreadBakers




I know that you're looking at these and thinking, "Piadina? She made tortillas!" And you're certainly not wrong. Depending on where you look, the recipe for a piadina, this Italian flatbread, is almost identical to that of a tortilla. The piadina is popular in the Romagna region of Italy and uses lard and/or olive oil. It's typically filled with cured meats and cheeses but a sweet version with Nutella is also popular.


Thank you Anshie for hosting our Italian themed Bread Bakers this month! See all the other Italian breads below. 


Piadina
Yield: 5

Ingredients

225g flour
1t baking powder
1t salt
1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
112 grams water

Directions

Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add oil then enough water to make a soft but non-sticky dough.

Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover and let rest for at least 30 minutes.

After the dough has rested, divide into 5 balls. Roll each ball out to an approximately 7 inch circle.

Heat a flat bottomed skillet over medium heat. Brush lightly with oil and cook each piadina a minute or two on each side. Serve immediately. 


 #BreadBakers is a group of bread loving bakers who get together once a month to bake bread with a common ingredient or theme. Follow our Pinterest board right here. Links are also updated each month on this home page.

We take turns hosting each month and choosing the theme/ingredient.

  4. These look wonderful. One person's tortilla is another's piadina! Fill it with antipasti, and there's no mistaking it for a tortilla.
