Crisp Rosemary Flatbread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F with a heavy baking sheet on rack in middle.
• Stir together flour, chopped rosemary, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Make a well in center, then add water and oil and gradually stir into flour with a wooden spoon until a dough forms. Knead dough gently on a work surface 4 or 5 times.
• Divide dough into 3 pieces and roll out 1 piece (keep remaining pieces covered with plastic wrap) on a sheet of parchment paper into a 10-inch round (shape can be rustic; dough should be thin).
• Lightly brush top with additional oil and scatter small clusters of rosemary leaves on top, pressing in slightly. Sprinkle with sea salt. Slide round (still on parchment) onto preheated baking sheet and bake until pale golden and browned in spots, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer flatbread (discard parchment) to a rack to cool, then make 2 more rounds (1 at a time) on fresh parchment (do not oil or salt until just before baking). Break into pieces.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water; stir in honey. Add 1/4 cup flour; mix until almost smooth. Let stand 30 minutes or until bubbly., Place remaining flour, remaining warm water, oil, rosemary and salt in a food processor; add yeast mixture. Process until dough forms a ball. Process 1 minute more to knead dough, pulsing as needed., Transfer to a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Preheat oven to 425°. Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide and shape dough into 6 balls. On greased baking sheets, pat each ball into a 5-in. circle. For topping, brush tops with oil; sprinkle with rosemary and salt. Bake 8-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Freeze option: Freeze cooled flatbreads in a freezer container. To use, thaw at room temperature or microwave each flatbread on high until heated through, 10-15 seconds.

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.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sprinkle yeast and sugar over warm water; let stand until foamy, about 5 minute.
• Add lemon zest, salt, rosemary, 2 T. oil, and 1 1/2 cups flour.
• Beat with a heavy spoon or an electric mixer until dough is glossy and stretching 3-5 minute.
• Mix in about 1 cup more flour, or enough to make a soft dough.
• To knead by hand, scrape dough onto a lightly floured board and knead until smooth and springy, about 10 minute adding more flour as needed to prevent sticking.
• To knead with a dough hook, beat dough on high speed until it pulls cleanly from sides of bowl and is springy 5-7 minute. If dough is sticky, add flour 1 T. at a time.
• Turn dough out onto a generously floured board.
• Pat into a 6-inch square.
• Brush dough with remaining oil, loosely cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until puffy, about 45 minute.
• Grease 3 large baking sheets.
• Gently rub with 2 T flour.
• With a sharp knife, cut dough lengthwise into quarters.
• Working with one quarter at a time, cut it lenghtwise into 8 equal pieces.
• Stretch one piece to about 15 inches long; place on a baking sheet.
• Repeat with remaining breadsticks, spacing them about 1/2 inches apart.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven 20-25 minute or until golden brown. Rotate baking sheets after 10 minute.
• Cool on rack.
• If you can't cook them all at once, dough can be refrigerated.

Steps:

• To roll out: 1 1/4 cups plain white flour Crumble the yeast in a mixing bowl.
• Pour on the water.
• Stir to dissolve the yeast. Add salt and bread flour.
• Knead to an elastic dough.
• Turn out the dough onto a floured work surface. Cut into 3 parts.
• Form each part into a sausage and cut it into 8 pieces.
• Form each piece into a round ball.
• Cover and let rise for about 30 minutes.
• Roll out each ball into a very thin circle. N.B.
• Do not knead! Roll and turn the cake several times.
• When it is very thin, about 2 mm (1/12"), prick very closely with a fork.
• Make a hole in the middle of each cake. Place two cakes on each baking sheet. Bake at once at 275M-0C/525M-0F oven for 3 - 4 minutes.
• Cool on a rack.
