fantastic-garlic-flatbreads

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour (or use almond flour for a keto version)
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp olive oil (or melted butter)
• 1/2 cup warm water (adjust as needed)
• 4-5 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp butter, melted
• Fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
• Extra olive oil for cooking

Instructions:

1. Prepare the dough:
   • In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
   • Add olive oil (or melted butter) and warm water, stirring until the dough starts to come together.
   • Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes on a floured surface until it’s smooth and elastic.
   • Cover the dough and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
2. Prepare the garlic butter:
   • In a small pan, melt butter over low heat.
   • Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
   • Remove from heat and stir in the fresh parsley if using. Set aside.
3. Shape the flatbreads:
   • After the dough has rested, divide it into small balls (about 6-8, depending on the size of your flatbreads).
   • Roll each ball into a thin circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
4. Cook the flatbreads:
   • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and add a little olive oil.
   • Place the flatbread in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy.
5. Garlic butter glaze:
   • Once cooked, immediately brush the hot flatbreads with the garlic butter mixture.
6. Serve:
   • Serve warm with a side of yogurt, hummus, or your favorite dip.
