The dough should be pliable and kind of squishy in your hands. Kind of like dumpling dough, but not as wet. When using all whole wheat flour it is usually necessary to add more water as necessary depending on the humidity. I would advise adding a little bit at a time until it is the right consistency. They probably didn't bubble up because you couldn't roll them thin enough. When making them myself I usually use 2/3 unbleached flour and 1/3 whole wheat. Whole wheat absorbs more of the liquid and usually makes rolling them thin a bit more of a challenge. When rolling them out make sure to keep your surface dusted with flour and your rolling pin. Also, I continually turn them and flip them as I roll. And also make sure your griddle is good and hot before you put your first one on. Glad they were still tasty. Hopefully the next time they will turn out better. Kim, so sorry about your dry dough. The dough should be pliable and kind of squishy in your hands. Kind of like dumpling dough, but not as wet.

I tried to make them. How thick (dry) should the dough be? Mine was pretty dry. There was almost NO bubbling up while cooking, and even though I didn't let them get too brown/crisp, they broke when bending (not able to roll). I think maybe the dough was too dry. I used whole wheat flour; does your recipe use white or whole wheat? I know whole wheat absorbs more water. They're still tasty, BTW. OK, I need help. I tried to make them.

I will definitely be trying them out soon and will let you know how it goes. Thanks for sharing your passion.
