Ideal for breaking bread with family or hosting dinner parties, these flatbreads pair beautifully with hummus, olive oil, or grilled meats. The recipe is straightforward, requiring minimal prep time, making it an excellent choice for weeknight meals or casual gatherings. Enjoy the satisfaction of baking fresh bread that captures the essence of Mediterranean culinary tradition.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425&# 194;°F (220ðC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt, then gradually add water while mixing until a soft dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 2-3 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each portion out into thin circles or rectangles on a floured surface.
  5. Transfer the rolled dough onto the prepared baking sheet, brushing lightly with olive oil if desired for crispiness.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is cooked through.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm with your favorite dips or meals.
