EASY PEASY GLUTEN FREE FLATBREAD

Categories     Gluten Free Recipe

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

350g gluten free plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
300ml natural or plain Greek yoghurt
1 tsp Maldon sea salt
8 sundried tomatoes, finely sliced (optional)
50g green olives, finely sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Add the flour, baking powder and yoghurt to a large bowl.
  • Mix with a wooden spoon at first to roughly combine then get your hands in there and knead the ingredients until they are properly combined and you are left with a pliable dough. If the mixture is too dry add a little water, if too wet sprinkle with extra flour until you get the consistency pictured below.
  • Add the olives and sundried tomato slices onto the dough and combine to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout. Don't overmix though or your sundried tomatoes with completely meld into the dough (not a bad thing really, as they will still taste great, but visually I prefer to have the red tomato stripes running through the flatbread).
  • Lightly flour a board and rolling pin. Take a sixth of the dough and roll into a ball shape. Flatten it out with the rolling pin until it is around 5mm thick. OR If you are rolling pin-less or in hurry, you can always flatten them with you hands for a more rustic finish. I often do this as it's so quick!
  • Heat a griddle pan over a medium-low flame - oil is optional, these can be dry-fried or simply spritz the pan with a tiny bit of olive oil for a more golden finish. Now pop your raw gluten free flatbread into the pan and allow to cook on each side for around 3-5 minutes. They will rise slightly during cooking, giving a nice light (yet still satisyingly doughy) interior.
  • Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you have a neat little stack of gluten free flatbread and then you are ready to serve! These are best eaten straight away while they are warm, or put aside and blast in the microwave just before you are ready to serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield Six 8-inch flatbreads

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup (4 ounces/115 grams) almond flour (see Cook's Note)
1 cup (4 ounces/115 grams) tapioca starch (see Cook's Note)
1 can (13.6 ounces/387 grams) full-fat coconut milk (see Cook's Note)
Coconut oil or ghee, for frying
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Melted butter or ghee, for brushing
Chopped parsley or cilantro, for sprinkling
Cooked bacon, lettuce leaves and sliced tomatoes
Sliced avocado, halved cherry tomatoes and mesclun greens

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the almond flour and tapioca starch. Add the salt and garlic powder, if using. Add the coconut milk and whisk until a smooth, thick batter forms.
  • Melt 1 teaspoon coconut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is at an even, moderate heat, add 1/3 cup of the batter and let it spread out to about an 8-inch circle (although you can make the flatbread large or smaller, if desired). Cook the flatbread on the first side until tiny bubbles begin to form on the surface, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate or wire rack. Repeat with more coconut oil and the remaining batter.
  • Serve the flatbreads while warm and crisp. If desired, brush with butter or ghee and sprinkle with chopped herbs--or roll up your choice of optional fillings in the flatbread. Refrigerate any leftover flatbread in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

GLUTEN-FREE PITA FLATBREAD



Gluten-Free Pita Flatbread image

Soft and chewy pita bread made with gluten-free flour. Thicker than a tortilla. Slice the tops to fill them with vegetables and even hot grilled meats, cheeses, meatballs, or falafel. These will hold up to the challenge. They double as thick wraps for shawarma, gyros, or as a flatbread for your meal.

Categories     Healthy Recipes     Gluten Free     Bread

Time 1h45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup lukewarm water, divided, or as needed
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 teaspoon honey
1 cup gluten-free bread flour
¾ cup gluten-free whole grain flour
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 100 degrees F (38 degrees C).
  • Combine 1/2 cup lukewarm water with yeast and honey. Mix and set aside to proof, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Combine both gluten-free flours in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Turn mixer to low and while mixing, add oil and salt. Slowly add the yeast mixture; allow to mix. Add remaining lukewarm water, little by little, until all the flour comes together. Depending on your flour mix, you may not need all of the water or you may need more to create a soft dough. Once a ball forms, knead on low speed for exactly 1 minute; the dough will be sticky but manageable.
  • Use your hands to form dough into a ball. Put it back into the mixing bowl and cover with a warm, damp towel. Turn off the oven and put the bowl in the warm oven. Let rise until almost doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  • Use a kitchen scale and divide the dough into 6 equal balls. Cover again with the damp towel and return to the turned-off oven; let rise for 15 minutes.
  • Roll 1 dough ball between 2 sheets of parchment paper into a 6-inch round pita; avoid using flour or pitas will dry out or burn. Peel the parchment paper away from the dough (not the dough away from the parchment or it will stretch).
  • Heat a cast iron griddle or comal pan over medium-high heat (7 out of 9 on an electric stovetop). Place the pita on the hot pan and cook until one side has browned slightly and begins to puff up, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip pita and cook until puffy on the other side, another 2 to 3 minutes. Use tongs to press down on the dough; it will continue to puff up.
  • Roll remaining pitas and cook the same way. Pitas are ready to serve when cool to the touch, but still warm.

GLUTEN-FREE PIZZA CRUST OR FLATBREAD



Gluten-Free Pizza Crust or Flatbread image

This recipe is for a crust that can be used for pizza or flatbreads. After 2 years of being GF, this is the best pizza crust/flatbread recipe I have. It is based on trial and error in an effort to improve other recipes. My kids say this is better than our homemade wheat flour crusts.

Time 1h

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup very warm water
½ teaspoon white sugar
2 teaspoons yeast
2 cups gluten-free flour blend
½ cup rice flour
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin powder
½ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Whisk water and sugar together in a bowl. Whisk in yeast. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 10 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine gluten-free flour, rice flour, Italian seasoning, xanthan gum, gelatin, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.

  • Transfer dough to the prepared baking sheet. Lay another sheet of parchment paper on top; smooth out dough to fill the baking sheet. Let dough rest, about 10 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until dough puffs up, 5 to 10 minutes. Peel parchment paper off the top. Continue baking until dough is golden brown and edges are cooked through, about 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • To make the flatbreads more flavorful, use a variety of herbs and spices in the dough. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried basil, and crushed red pepper.
  • If you don't have a pizza stone, you can bake the flatbreads on a greased baking sheet.
  • For a crispy flatbread, preheat the oven to the highest temperature possible before baking.
  • To prevent the flatbreads from sticking to the pizza stone or baking sheet, brush them with olive oil before baking.
  • Be careful not to overcook the flatbreads, or they will become dry and crispy.

Conclusion:

Gluten-free flatbreads are a delicious and versatile food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be topped with a variety of ingredients, making them a perfect option for a quick and easy meal or snack.
