½teaspoonkosher or fine sea salt
6scallionsboth white and light green parts, chopped
Instructions
In a medium bowl, sift the flour and xanthan gum; whisk to combine. Slowly add the water and mix as you go to create a very soft dough. Form the dough into a ball, cover with a damp tea towel, and let rest for 15-20 minutes.
Flour your countertop or a pastry board and place the dough in the center, then dust the top with more flour. With a floured rolling pin, roll out to a circle 12-14 inches in diameter (add more flour, as needed, to prevent sticking). Brush the surface with about 1½ tablespoons oil, then sprinkle with salt. Scatter the chopped scallions over the top, then roll up the dough to create a roll.
Cut the roll in half and pinch each of the ends closed. Standing the rolls on one end, push each roll down to create 2 disks of dough. Using the floured rolling pin, roll each disk out, one at a time, using more flour as needed, to form 7-inch circles.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with oil. Gently transfer one disk to the pan, and then brush the top with oil. Cook about 5 minutes, until the bottom begins to brown in spots. Gently flip the pancake and cook the other side for 3-4 minutes. Slide the pancake onto a plate and keep warm while you cook the second pancake using the same steps.
Cut each pancake into 4 pie-shaped slices and serve immediately. Best eaten fresh but can be gently reheated at 350°F for about 10 minutes.
