Recipe View Lightly oil a cast iron skillet and place it over medium-low heat. Once heated, cook each piadina in the hot skillet until it begins to set and develops light golden-brown spots, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. While cooking, pierce the dough with a fork 3 to 4 times to prevent excessive puffing. (25 minutes)

08 Step

Recipe View As each piadina is cooked, wrap it in a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm and pliable until ready to serve.

For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a pinch of dried herbs like rosemary or thyme to the flour mixture.
If you don't have a cast iron skillet, a regular non-stick pan will also work well.
The dough can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Be sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out.
Experiment with different fillings! Piadina is delicious with grilled vegetables, pesto, and various cheeses.

    The resting time is crucial! Don't skip it. It makes the dough so much easier to roll out.

  • Lisette Pfeffer

    This recipe is so easy to follow! My family loved it, especially with prosciutto and mozzarella.

  • Alexandria White

    I found that a slightly higher heat (medium) worked better for my stove, but the results were fantastic!

  • Florine Nienow

    I added a little olive oil to the dough and it gave it a wonderful flavor. Will definitely make this again!

  • Erna Sauer

    I've tried other piadina recipes before, but this one is the best. The texture is perfect!
