Ingredients
  

2 cups whole wheat flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)

3/4 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, plus extra for garnish)

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, oregano, and garlic powder. Mix well. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.

    Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Pour this mixture into the well of the dry ingredients.

      Combine: Stir until just combined. If using, fold in the grated Parmesan cheese. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.

        Preheat the Skillet: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, swirling to coat the bottom.

          Cook the Dough: Spoon the dough into the skillet, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or your hands to form a round bread-like shape (about 1 inch thick).

            Cover and Cook: Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and the top starts to firm up.

              Flip: Carefully flip the bread using a large spatula. If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the skillet before flipping to ensure the second side doesn’t stick. Cook for another 10-12 minutes with the lid on, until golden brown and cooked through.

                Finish and Serve: Once cooked, remove from the skillet and let it cool slightly. Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle with additional fresh parsley and Parmesan if desired. Cut into wedges or slices, and serve warm.
