Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, sugar, and baking powder until evenly combined.
- Stir in the warm water and olive oil with a wooden spoon until a rough dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly (about 1 minute) until smooth.
- Cover the dough and let it rest for 10–15 minutes.
- Mix the melted butter with garlic, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper.
- Divide the dough into 6–8 equal pieces and flatten each piece into rounds.
