Poppy Seed And Rosemary Flatbread Recipes

ROSEMARY FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• In a large bowl, stir together the water, yeast and honey.
• Add 1 cup of the flour.
• Beat well with a wire whisk until smooth and creamy.
• Let rest at room temperature for 5 minutes.
• Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, rosemary, sage, salt and a second cup of flour.
• Whisk hard for 3 minutes or until smooth.
• Add the remaining 1/2 to 1 cup of flour a little at a time with a wooden spoon until a soft, sticky dough is formed.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly for 3 minutes.
• Coat a baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray.
• Place the dough on the baking sheet and shape into a 9-inch round that is 1-inch thick.
• Brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

CRISPY ROSEMARY SEA SALT FLATBREAD CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicon mat or parchment paper.
• Place flour, salt, sugar, and grated cheese in a mixing bowl. Stir together until well mixed. Add rosemary; drizzle with olive oil and add water. Mix with a fork until mixture comes together in a fairly sticky dough and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer dough onto floured surface and add flour as you knead the dough. Knead until it no longer sticks to work surface, 4 to 5 minutes. Divide dough in half.
• Dust work surface with flour. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness or less. Brush or mist surface of dough very lightly with water. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Prick the entire surface of dough with the tines of a fork to prevent crackers from puffing too much when baking.
• Cut each rolled out half into about 30 pieces with a pizza wheel. You can cut them out in squares, rectangles, or triangles--your choice. Transfer onto prepared baking sheet with a bench scraper or your floured fingers (dough will be very sticky).
• Bake in preheated oven until perfectly browned and crunchy, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness.

• Stir in water and oil until dough comes together.
• Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth, about 5 minutes, dusting surface lightly with flour as needed.

• Heat a 10" to 12" cast iron or other heavy skillet over medium heat until a drop of water sizzles off on contact.
• On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 6 portions.
• Roll each piece into 8" round, put in the heated skillet and cook until golden brown spots appear on the bottom and the bread begins to puff, 1- 2 minutes.
• Flip the bread, and cook until spots appear, then transfer to a plate (cover with a towel to keep warm).
• Repeat the cooking process with the remaining 5 dough portions.
