Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 1 cup warm milk (around 110°F)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons margarine (softened)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- ¼ cup warm water (around 110°F)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 4 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for rolling)
- 1 egg
Instructions
- 1
In a small bowl, mix the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5–10 minutes until foamy. This means the yeast is active and ready to go.
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, honey, margarine, and salt. Stir well. Add in the egg and whisk until everything is smooth.
- 3
Add the foamy yeast mixture into the bowl. Gradually stir in the flour, about a cup at a time, until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for 5–7 minutes on a floured surface until it’s smooth and elastic. It shouldn’t stick to your hands much.
- 4
Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with a damp cloth or plastic wrap. Let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
- 5
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently. Divide it into 10–12 equal pieces and roll each into a ball. Let the dough rest for 10 more minutes.
- 6
Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into an oval shape about ¼-inch thick. Sprinkle a bit of flour if it sticks.

Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook each bread for about 1–2 minutes on each side until golden spots form and it puffs slightly. Stack them in a clean towel to keep warm and soft.
