About a year ago I was shopping in Trader Joe’s and they were out of pita. So I tried their lavash and preferred it to pita. When the COVID-19 pandemic ruled out shopping at TJ’s, I turned to Amazon and bought an order of Markook. I expected something like the lavash from TJ’s, but, boy, was I surprised!! I am hooked on Markook. Comparing my previous lavash experience with Markook is like comparing some soggy thick pancakes with a fine french crepe! I’m now a lifetime Markook buyer. Great stuff!!!

I LOVE this bread! Very versatile and can use this several different ways. By itself it’s very soft and thin, works great as a “wrap”. I’ve also crisped them in the oven to make chips and used that as a clear bread and added toppings! I highly recommend trying this 😊

So good!!! I use these for lunch wraps, “sloppy joes,” pizza and taquitos! They’re very sturdy and don’t break apart. The macros are a little high but man these are good if you can fit them into your macros!!! Definitely recommend these!

I love BreadMasters Markook! So thin it makes a prefect vehicle that allows all of your fillings to shine through! I enjoy doing up sandwich wraps and panini with this flatbread. It also makes great finger foods…when cut into four pieces it’s a great size to fill and roll taquitos or even apple pie rolls for a treat! They bake up nice and crispy. I make an enchiladas casserole with Markook layers (in place of tortillas) and the Markook fits perfectly in my 9×13 casserole dish! Love it!
