AIP Friendly Cassava & Coconut Flatbread
Warm, golden, and faintly fragrant with turmeric and rosemary, these flatbreads are the kind of thing you'll want to make on repeat once you realize how satisfying grain-free bread can actually be. The dough comes together from cassava flour and full-fat coconut milk, giving each round a soft, pliable texture that holds up beautifully to dipping, wrapping, or eating straight off the skillet. For anyone navigating an elimination protocol, finding a flatbread that skips grains, eggs, nightshades, and legumes without tasting like cardboard is genuinely rare — this one clears every hurdle. The coconut oil does double duty, enriching the dough and keeping the pan perfectly non-stick, while the garlic powder and turmeric add depth without relying on anything off-limits. Rolling the rounds between parchment sheets makes the whole process tidy and stress-free, and the two-to-three minute cook time per side means you can have all eight flatbreads on the table in well under an hour. A loose kitchen towel over the finished stack keeps them soft and warm while you work through the batch — a small step that makes a real difference. This recipe makes four generous servings, so it's just as practical for a weeknight dinner as it is for meal-prepping wraps for the week ahead.

- 2
Add the coconut milk, water, and melted coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Stir with a fork, then knead briefly with your hands until a smooth, pliable dough forms — it should hold together without cracking when pressed and feel similar to soft play dough. If the dough is crumbly, add water 1 tsp at a time; if it is sticky, add cassava flour 1 tsp at a time.
