Ingredients:

  • 2 1/4 cups water
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 5 tsp olive oil
  • 2 cups masa harina
  • cooking spray

Directions:

  1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Place masa harina in a large bowl; add boiling mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon. Cover; let stand 15 minutes.
  2. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Working with 1 portion at a time, shape each portion into a ball with moist hands. Shape the balls into 1/2-inch-thick patties. Coat each patty with cooking spray.
  3. Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat until hot. Place 4 arepas, cooking spray sides down, in pan. Press arepas lightly with a spatula to flatten slightly; cook 5 minutes on each side or until crispy and speckled brown. Repeat with remaining arepas.
