  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    How do you make sour cream flatbreads? Gather all your ingredients. Sift the flour through a fine sieve. The butter can be any temperature — we're going to melt it anyway.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    In a wide, deep bowl, beat the raw egg with a fork or whisk.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Add the sour cream and whisk again.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Melt the butter in a double boiler or the microwave. Pour the melted butter into the egg-and-sour-cream mixture, stirring quickly.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

    Add the sugar and mix well again.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6

    Add the baking soda to the sifted flour.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7

    Add a little salt (a pinch) to the flour.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8

    Work the flour into the egg mixture, kneading it into a dough. Watch the consistency — don't add all the flour at once, just a spoonful or two at a time.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9

    The dough should be moderately firm, not sticky, and hold its shape. Don't make it too stiff, or the flatbreads will come out tough — so keep an eye on how much flour you add!

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10

    Let the dough rest for about 15 minutes. In that time the gluten will relax, making the dough easy to work with.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11

    Cover the dough with a towel or plastic wrap so it doesn't dry out.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12

    Divide the dough into 7 or more pieces.

  13. Step 13:

    Step 13

    Roll out each piece into a circle the size of your skillet. Prick it all over with a fork.

  14. Step 14:

    Step 14

    Gently transfer the dough to a preheated dry skillet using your rolling pin. If you've done everything right, the raw flatbreads will be very delicate, so take care not to tear them.

  15. Step 15:

    Step 15

    Cook the flatbreads in a dry, preheated skillet with the lid on.

  16. Step 16:

    Step 16

    Flip to the other side and cook uncovered until done. Watch closely so they don't burn — the flatbreads brown quite fast, so don't step away from the stove.

  17. Step 17:

    Step 17

    Brush each flatbread with butter and stack them one on top of another.

  18. Step 18:

    Step 18

    And there you have your golden flatbreads! Enjoy!

  • They really reminded me of layers for a simple cake, so we ate some of the flatbreads while they were still hot, and the rest I cut in half and spread with dulce de leche — it made a quick little cake in no time! Give it a try!
  • While I was cooking them, the aroma was so good the whole household came running — they thought I was baking a cake! They really do resemble cake layers: add 2 tablespoons of sugar like I did and they turn out sweeter, perfect with tea. Cut back on the sugar and they work great as a bread substitute! And they come together in a flash!
  • Be prepared to need a bit more or less flour than the recipe calls for. Go by the desired consistency of the dough rather than the exact amount. To avoid mistakes, read up on flour and its properties!
