These soft, golden garlic herb flatbreads are easy to make in a skillet and delicious served warm. They’re tender inside, lightly crisp on the outside, and full of fresh herb flavor.
Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup warm water
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or dill
1 tablespoon melted butter, for brushing
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.
Add the warm water and olive oil and mix until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough for 5–7 minutes, until smooth.
Cover and let it rest for 20–30 minutes.
Divide the dough into 8–10 equal pieces.
Roll each piece into a thin circle.
Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat.
Cook each flatbread for 1–2 minutes per side, until golden brown spots appear.
Mix the melted butter with the minced garlic and chopped herbs.
Brush the hot flatbreads generously with the garlic-herb butter.
Stack them and keep covered with a clean kitchen towel to maintain their softness.
Serve warm.
Tips
Letting the dough rest makes it easier to roll and helps create a softer texture.
For extra flavor, add a pinch of paprika, dried oregano, or chili flakes to the garlic butter.
Do not cook the flatbreads over excessively high heat, or the outside may brown before the center is fully cooked.
Serving Suggestions
Enjoy these flatbreads with eggs, cheese, yogurt, grilled chicken, roasted vegetables, soups, or your favorite dips. They also work beautifully as wraps for savory fillings.
Storage
Store cooled flatbreads in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat them briefly in a skillet before serving.
