Mix 6 cups of flour, 3 tablespoons of baking powder, and 2 teaspoons of salt together.

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.

Add 1 cup of vegetable oil to the well.

Add most of the 3 cups of water to the mixture, reserving some for later if needed.

Mix until the dough is moist and somewhat together, being careful not to over mix.

Turn the dough out onto a floured board.

Flatten the dough out, using a rolling pin to make it about half an inch thick.

Place the flattened dough on an ungreased baking sheet.

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Poke holes in the dough with a fork.

Bake for 15 minutes on one side, then flip and bake for another 15 minutes on the other side.
