Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup warm water (about 110°F)

How to Make Garlic Herb Flatbreads
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt. Mix until well combined.
- Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into four equal pieces.
- Roll each piece into a thin circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped rosemary, and black pepper. Sprinkle this herb mixture over the rolled-out flatbreads, pressing gently to adhere.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a little olive oil to the pan, then place one flatbread in the skillet.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly puffed. Repeat with the remaining flatbreads.
- Brush the cooked flatbreads with extra olive oil before serving.
Tips for the Best Results
For the best flavor and texture, ensure your water is warm but not hot when mixing with the yeast. This helps activate the yeast without killing it. Knead the dough thoroughly, as this develops the gluten, resulting in a chewy flatbread. Experiment with different herbs based on your preference!
Easy Variations
- Swap out the parsley and rosemary for thyme or oregano for a different flavor profile.
- Add grated cheese into the dough for a cheesy twist.
- Incorporate sun-dried tomatoes or olives into the flatbread for extra flavor.
- Top with a sprinkle of sea salt before cooking for a savory touch.
What to Serve With It
- Hummus or tzatziki for a classic dip
- Soups like tomato basil or lentil
- Charcuterie boards with meats and cheeses
- Fresh salads or roasted vegetables
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftover flatbreads in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze them by placing parchment paper between each flatbread and sealing them in a freezer bag. Reheat in a skillet over low heat or in the oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes until warmed through.
