Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup warm water (about 110°F)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for cooking
• 1/4 cup fresh mixed herbs (such as parsley, cilantro, and dill), finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

How to Make Herbed Flatbreads with Spiced Topping

1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt. Mix well.
2. Gradually add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.
3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
5. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
6. On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a flat circle about 1/4 inch thick.
7. In a small bowl, mix the chopped herbs with cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
8. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil. Cook each flatbread for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
9. While still warm, sprinkle the spiced herb mixture generously on top of each flatbread.
10. Serve warm, and enjoy your herbed flatbreads with your favorite dips!

Tips for the Best Results

• Allow the dough to rise in a warm, draft-free area for optimal puffiness.
• Adjust the spice levels to suit your taste—add more cayenne for extra heat!
• Ensure your skillet is hot enough before adding the flatbreads for a perfect golden crust.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the herbs for other favorites like basil, oregano, or thyme.
• Add grated cheese to the herb mixture for a cheesy twist.
• Top with sun-dried tomatoes or olives before cooking for an extra layer of flavor.
• Try different spices such as za’atar or Italian seasoning for a unique spin.

What to Serve With It

• Hummus or baba ganoush for dipping.
• Greek yogurt or tzatziki for a refreshing complement.
• A side salad with feta and olives for a Mediterranean touch.
• Grilled meats or vegetables for a heartier meal.
