Ingredients
- 1 cup bread flour (plus more for surface and kneading)
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 1 TBS active dry yeast
- 1 TBS natural cane sugar
- 2 TBS extra virgin olive oil (use the good stuff)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cracked black pepper
Method
- In a large bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast into the warm water.
- Usually takes around 10 minutes until you get a nice thick foam on top.
- When the foam coats the entire top, youre good to move on to the next step.
- Add 1 of olive oil along with the salt and pepper into the sugar/yeast mixture.
- Do not stir.
- Add in 1/2 cup of the bread flour and stir with a spoon.
- Then, add the other half and stir until the dough comes together in a ball but is still semi sticky.
- Now, we knead.
- Dust your surface with flour, and I suggest putting a little olive oil on your hands before getting started.
- Once the dough is evenly textured and has a bit of elasticity (about 3-4 minutes) you can put it into a bowl greased with olive oil and cover with a dish towel.
- Allow it to rise for an hour or so, or until its about double its original size.
- Divide into two portions and stretch like you would a pizza dough to a size that is about 6" wide by 9" long.
- Flour your baking sheet and place both portions onto it.
- Allow to rest for 20 minutes, and then brush each portion with 1/2 of olive oil and more salt if you want it.
- Bake in a 410 oven for 10-12 minutes until the top of your flatbreads are golden.
- Let it cool and eat it.
- And dont forget to turn the oven off.
