Methods

Mix the dry ingredients together.
Put the starter in a medium sided bowl and add the dry ingredients, mixing with an electric mixer until just combined.
Add the liquids to the bowl and mix on high speed for 2 – 3 minutes until the consistency of a thick paste is achieved.
Allow the dough to rest for 1 – 2 hours, it will rise but not as much as a wheat based culture.
Preheat the oven to 220°C.
Brush parchment paper with olive oil and then with a ladle drop and smear the batter into round shapes of about 10 cm diameter. Top with a sprinkling of your choice of seeds, herbs, spices and salt.
Pop into the oven and bake for 5 minutes, until the edges turn golden.
Delicious on its own or topped with Avocado or Hummus, or fresh tomato, salt and black pepper.
