Looking for a healthy, wheat-free bread alternative? These 2-Ingredient Sprouted Oat and Beetroot Flatbreads are vibrant, nutrient-dense, and surprisingly simple to make. No flour, no gluten, and high in fiber!

Oat dough can be notoriously sticky, but in this video, I show you my secret sifting trick to get the perfect texture every time. Plus, we’re keeping it Zero-Waste by using the beetroot pulp to create a creamy yogurt dip while the dough rests.

What makes these special:
No Wheat • No Gluten • High Fiber
Naturally colored with fresh beetroot
Sprouted oats for better digestion
Soft, flexible, and perfect for meal prep

Instructions

  1. Prep the Flour & Juice
    Blend the sprouted oats until fine. Sift it, but keep the coarse bits—you might need this later. Blend the beetroot with water and strain; keep the juice for the dough and the pulp for your dip.
  2. Knead & Rest
    Mix the juice, salt, and olive oil into the flour. If the dough is tacky, knead in those reserved coarse bits until smooth. Cover and let it rest for 5 minutes (perfect time to mix your beet-pulp dip!).
  3. The Roll-and-Cook Workflow
    Divide the dough into 10 balls. To save time, use the "Pro-Multitasking" method:
    Roll out your first flatbread ball.
    Place it on the hot, dry pan.
    While the first side is cooking for 30 seconds, start rolling out the next ball.
    Flip the flatbread on the pan, continue rolling, and repeat.
    Note: If you are a beginner, you can roll all 10 first and keep them covered with a muslin cloth so they don't dry out then cook them together to avoid burning!
  4. The 3-Step Flip Technique
    To keep them soft, follow this specific timing:
    First side: 30 seconds.
    Flip: 40 seconds on the second side.
    Flip again: Press down gently with a spatula for another 20–30 seconds.
  5. The Finish
    Stack the cooked flatbreads in a clean kitchen towel to trap the steam. You can apply a little butter for an even softer texture.

💡 Chef’s Notes

The Edges: You’ll notice the edges might crack a bit. That’s completely normal because we aren’t using gluten. You can cut them into perfect circles with a lid, or keep them rustic.

Low GI: Using sprouted oats makes these much easier on your blood sugar compared to white flour or even standard whole wheat.
