How to Make Finnish Flat Bread

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup shortening using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gradually add 3/4 cup milk, mixing gently until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 5-6 times. Avoid over-kneading.
  6. Pat or roll the dough into a 12-inch circle on an ungreased pizza pan or baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the flatbread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  8. Let the flatbread cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
