Flatbread

3 Minute Flat Bread

1 tube (16.3 ounces) large refrigerated buttermilk biscuits  (This is the Pillsbury Grands.  I used the buttermilk flaky layers

Roll out each biscuit into a 6-in. circle. It is important to get it to the 6 inch circle so it's the right thickness.  In a small nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook each biscuit for 30-60 seconds (I did 60 seconds) on each side or until golden brown.  Yes that is right, DO NOT put any oil in the pan.  You cook them in a completely dry pan.  Makes 8 servings


These were better than I thought and very easy! I thought that the flatbread wouldn't work, but it was quick, easy and tasted so yummy. I couldn't get my rolls to make a circle so we had ovals and 6 inches wasn't to hard to make, but we also used 2 per person.
