Pan de cañada is a flatbread native to the Spanish region of Aragon, characterized by its flat, elongated shape with characteristic grooves designed for drizzling with extra virgin olive oil. This bread varies in size and can be sweet or salty.
It has a moist, spongy crumb with an irregular pattern and a thin, slightly crunchy golden crust. The olive oil used acts as a natural preservative, keeping the bread tender for several weeks. Each Aragon town has its own recipe, but common ingredients include wheat flour, water, a bit of yeast, and salt.
