Coconut oil adds a unique flavor.

Combine 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour in a mixing bowl.

Add a pinch of salt, grains of paradise, and lemon zest to the flour mixture.

In a separate bowl, mix 1 and 1/2 cups warm milk and water at about 100 degrees F.

Add yeast to the warm liquid and whisk until it activates, creating bubbles.

Pour the yeast mixture into the flour while mixing with the other hand until a dough forms.

If the dough is too wet, add a little flour; if too dry, add a little water.

Take the dough out of the bowl and fold it over gently to create layers.

Place the dough in a bowl with a little olive oil, cover with plastic, and let it rest at room temperature for about an hour and a half until it almost doubles in size.

After rising, punch down the dough and roll it again.

Cut the dough into two pieces and shape each into a bun.

Cover the buns with plastic and let them sit for about another hour.

Flatten the buns on a floured surface and roll them out evenly.

Rub a little oil on the grill or pizza stone and place the rolled flatbreads on it.

Cook the flatbreads on the grill until browned, flipping to achieve a nice color and crosshatch pattern.

Let the flatbreads rest for a minute before finishing them in the oven for about five minutes.
