Equipment
- 1 Baking Sheet lined with parchment paper
- 1 Mixing Bowl large
- 1 Rolling Pin
Ingredients
Flatbread Base
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
Toppings
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 medium tomatoes thinly sliced
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese optional
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt. Gradually add warm water and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm area for 30 minutes.
- While the dough rises, thinly slice the tomatoes and mince the garlic. Set aside.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it out into a flat, round shape on a floured surface.
- Place the rolled dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread olive oil on the surface, then sprinkle with minced garlic. Arrange tomato slices evenly on top. Season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake the flatbread for 15-20 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and tomatoes are caramelized.
Serving
- Allow the flatbread to cool slightly, slice into pieces, and serve warm. Enjoy as is or with your favorite dip.
Storage
- Store any leftover slices in an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best texture.
