6. Preheat a skillet slightly. There's no need to add oil. Place the flatbread on the skillet and cook over medium heat for about 20-30 seconds, then flip and cook for another 10-20 seconds. That's it, the flatbreads are ready. To prevent them from drying out, wrap them in a towel and place them in the refrigerator. If desired, you can slightly reheat the flatbreads before serving.
