A mollete is a flatbread from the Andalusian region, in southern Spain. It is a soft round white bread, usually served lightly toasted with olive oil and raw garlic or spread with lard (usually in the forms of manteca colorá or zurrapa de lomo [es]) in an Andalusian breakfast. The most famous are the ones from Antequera, Málaga.[1]
