Instructions: "This flat crust bread is great served warm and broken into pieces to eat. Its a great accompaniment to soups, salads and barbecue meals. This ideal picnic bread can be split in half horizontally for sandwiches."

Place ingredients into pan in the order suggested by your machines manual.

Select the "MANUAL" or "DOUGH" setting.

After the machine has completed the cycle, remove the dough and divide into
2 balls. Place balls of dough on lightly greased (I used a squirt of Pam)

cookie sheet (I use little 12" square ones that fit in my microwave).

Flatten each to a 10-inch circle. With table knife, cut a circle in dough about 1 inch from edge, cutting almost through to cookie sheet. Prick center with a fork. Spread topping (if desired, listed below) over the pricked dough. Cover; let rise in warm place 20 to 30 minutes (I boil a cup
of water in the microwave for a few minutes and put the dough there on stacked cookie pans). Bake at 375 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm or cold.

Suggested toppings:
sun-dried tomatoes, rehydrated sesame seeds with egg glaze fresh onion slices green pepper slices green and ripe olive slices sauteed onion with sugar and salt olive oil and Italian seasoning blend
