Rieska (Finnish Flatbread)

Rieska is an everyday Finnish Flatbread. This version is moist, slightly sweet, and perfect spread with salty butter.
There are several versions of this bread, including with barley or with potato. This one is probably the simplist one to make of the lot.
This bread is made with with baking powder and soda rather than yeast, so it's pretty much ready in thirty minutes from start to finish.
This bread is wonderful toasted or warmed for breakfast and served traditionally with butter and milk.
I love it sliced in half and spread with jam while still warm.
