Here’s a super quick garlic flatbread recipe that’s soft, flavorful, and ready in just 10 minutes—perfect for pairing with dips, soups, or even just buttering straight from the pan.
Ingredients (makes 4 flatbreads)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/3 cup water (adjust as needed)
- 2 tbsp olive oil (plus extra for cooking)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- Optional: chopped parsley or dried herbs for garnish
Instructions
- Mix the dough: In a bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder. Add water and 1 tbsp olive oil, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead lightly for 1–2 minutes.
- Divide & roll: Divide the dough into 4 balls. Roll each into a thin circle on a lightly floured surface.
- Prepare garlic oil: In a small bowl, mix minced garlic with 1 tbsp olive oil. Brush over one side of each rolled flatbread.
- Cook: Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Place flatbread garlic-side down and cook 1–2 minutes until golden and bubbly. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes.
- Serve: Brush the cooked flatbreads with a little extra garlic oil or butter, sprinkle with parsley or herbs, and serve hot.
💡 Quick Tips for Extra Flavor:
- For a cheesy twist, sprinkle shredded mozzarella or parmesan before cooking.
- Use a lid while cooking for a softer, steamed texture.
- These flatbreads are perfect for dipping in hummus, soups, or even drizzling with olive oil and balsamic.
If you want, I can give a version that’s ultra-fluffy, almost like naan, but still done in 10 minutes. Want me to do that?
