Podpłomyk (from Polish – 'under', – 'flame'; plural: ), known in Old Polish as wychopień or wychopieniek, is the oldest known Slavic form of bread, in the form of a small flatbread baked on an open fire. It has been preserved to the modern day as a part of Polish cuisine.
Podpłomyki are prepared with flour, water, and salt, and traditionally buttered or smeared with słonina when ready. Earlier forms of podpłomyki were sometimes made with leftover sourdough from breadmaking.
