Description
A quick and easy garlic flatbread that is slightly chewy and perfect for dipping or wrapping.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (for the garlic butter)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Extra chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Combine the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder until evenly mixed.
- Form the dough: Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients and stir until a rough dough forms.
- Knead and rest: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly—just until smooth. Cover and let rest for 10–15 minutes.
- Make the garlic-parsley butter: Mix melted butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
- Shape the flatbreads: Divide the dough into 6–8 pieces and flatten each into rounds about 1/8–1/4 inch thick.
- Cook and finish: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown spots appear. Brush with garlic-parsley butter and serve warm.
Notes
For a restaurant-style finish, brush once more with garlic butter just before serving.
