Step 1

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, water, olive oil, and salt. Knead for about 2 minutes, or until a soft dough forms.

Step 2

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape into balls. Cover the dough balls with a kitchen towel and let rest for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Stretch the dough balls carefully into rough circles or ovals, about 6 inches in diameter.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Working one at a time, cook the baleadas for about 1 minute on each side, until the center rises and small brown spots appear.

Step 5

Top each baleada with black beans and queso fresco, then finish with a drizzle of crema. Serve immediately.

Step 6

Enjoy!
