Flatbread classes suit home bakers who want to explore quick, satisfying breads that require minimal equipment and no lengthy proving times. Across the UK, 7 schools offer 8 different flatbread classes, with sessions typically running for 5 hours and priced from £85. These hands-on workshops cover an intriguing variety beyond the usual suspects, including green pea flatbread making, socca flatbread creation, and even blueberry blue corn pancakes alongside traditional favourites.
Students learn to work with diverse flours and techniques, from the chickpea-based socca popular in Nice to pain d'épices flatbreads that blur the lines between sweet and savoury. Classes are scattered across locations like Bath, Hounslow, and Altrincham, with all sessions designed for complete beginners. You'll typically take home whatever delicious creations you fancy, provided you bring your own containers.
Schools that teach flatbreads often also offer

Pizza & Focaccia classes, with some also running
