In a large mixing bowl*, add water, sugar, and yeast. Mix and let stand until frothy (about 20 minutes).

Mix in 3 cups of flour and salt. Add another ½ cup of flour and mix. If dough is sticky keep adding flour a little at a time until it pulls away from the sides of the bowl and forms a ball.

Remove from bowl and spray bowl with non-stick cooking spray and return dough to the bowl. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set aside until doubled in size (about 1 hour).

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking oil. Punch down dough and form into golf ball size balls (or slightly larger). You may need some flour on your work surface while doing this step. Put the balls on the pan, spray the tops with cooking oil and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside for about ½ hour.

Using a non-stick pan, heat it on the stove top. Don’t turn burner on past about 4 or the dough will cook too fast, burn and be doughy. (I found after the first couple I had to turn down the burner to 2 or 2 1/2.) Depending on the size of your pan, will depend on how many you can cook at a time.

Brush bottom of pan with a little olive oil. Stretch each ball into an oblong shape and place in the pan, don’t crowd or let them touch. Brush tops with olive oil and sprinkle with a little bit of garlic, if desired. Using a spatula or tongs, flip after a couple minutes. You can keep flipping so they don’t burn. Total cook time will be about 5 to 7 minutes. Repeat until all dough is cooked.

Enjoy!
