No need to turn on the oven for these! I love them with almond butter as an on-the-run or post-run snack.

Ingredients (Substitutions):
- 1 package Red Star Organic Instant Yeast or Red Star Organic Dry Active Yeast
- ¼ cup warm water
- 1 cup warm milk
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 egg
- ~4 cups flour (I like half all purpose, half whole wheat)
Instructions:
- Activate 1 package yeast in ¼ cup warm water for 5-10 minutes.
- Warm 1 cup milk, 1 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp sugar, and ½ tsp salt in the microwave. Make sure it is wrist temperature, then slowly add it to the yeast.
- Mix in 1 egg.
- Stirring, slowly add the ~4 cups of all purpose flour. Knead everything so it comes together and is a nice, soft dough (but not sticky). You may need to add a tad more flour but don’t overdo it.
- Let rise for 1-2 hours at room temperature.
- Sprinkle a board or rolling surface with cornmeal. Roll the dough into a ~¼ inch thick layer. Sprinkle the top with cornmeal. Use a mold (or a glass!) to cut out circular shapes. Cover and let rest while heating a dry pan (I use cast iron without oil or butter).
- Cook the dough ~7 minutes on each side on low heat.
