1. Combine flour, All Bran, seasonings and oil in food processor. Process mixture using an off and on motion and until very well mixed.

While rolling dough out sprinkle favorite toppings adding enough pressure to make sure toppings stick to the dough.
4. Bake for 4 to 7 minutes. Flip pieces over halfway through baking time
5. Watch very closely as the lavasch can bake uneven depending on how thin you rolled out the dough.

Additional pointers:
Keep baked lavasch in a well sealed container
Try experimenting with other varieties of flour
For a sweet taste, omit seasonings and top with a cinnamon and sugar mixture
