There is nothing better than homemade bread, but in all honesty, it can be a pain in the neck to make. Between kneading the dough, waiting for it to rise and then making sure you bake it correctly, it get´s overwhelming. Now erase all that. I present to you the most Incredible 5-MINUTE Garlic Flatbread Recipe.

This is the real deal folks. These garlic flatbreads have the most amazing flavors, they´re made with basic pantry staples and it only takes 5 minutes of prep work. Now you can have warm fresh bread in a jiffy 🙂 .

My favorite part about these flatbreads, is that you don´t have to bake them. You cook them on a grilling pan over a stove top. This makes it so much easier & quicker, and the bread still has the most amazing texture & flavor. Speaking of flavors, make sure to use a GREAT Olive Oil. This is the base fat of the flatbread and is what really flavors it.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: I used all-purpose flour to make these flatbreads, but you can use whole wheat flour or a combination of both. The grilling pan I used heats very quickly and evenly distributes the heat. This means it only takes about 75 seconds per side to cook these flatbreads. If you don´t have a grilling pan, you can use a standard frying pan. However, cooking times will be longer.

    I really like your recipes, and your YouTube appearances! You keep it simple, and delicious! I love breads and made this garlic flatbread recipe and it came out perfectly! Just like in your photos! I did cheat just a little bit: I had a bag of self-rising flour on the pantry shelf, so I used it and it worked most excellently, and made the prep time even shorter. Next time I am going to experiment with using a kiss of garlic oil along with the finely chopped garlic, for maximum garlic attack! Please keep the videos and recipes coming!

    Awesome! I asked for a bread recipe, and you gave me a bread recipe!
    If you have a recipe for a basic “pan de masa dura” (like you see all around Andalucia), I would love to see that as well 😉

    Thanks!

Why are my flatbreads tough? ›

Your flatbread may have dried out during the proofing process or even during cooking. Keeping the dough soft and moist at all stages is key. That is why the dough should always be covered while it rises and proofs. For the first rise, you can even use a pot lid or plate over the top of your bowl.

How do you toast flatbread? ›

Cooking Your Flatbreads

Place the flatbreads on the oven grate and bake for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly crisp (depends on the thickness of the bread you're using).

Can you put flatbread in the toaster? ›

Of course you can make toast from the flatbread. You can sweeten instead of salting to get a sweet and good dish. I recommend eating close to preparation. If you have prepared in advance for a work day / picnic, make sure to pack well so that the flatbread doesn't dry out excessively.

Sliced bread: While you can heat sliced bread in the microwave to make it warm and soft, it won't develop a crispy crust like when toasted in a toast.

Why does flatbread have to be toasted? ›

Toast it however, and it comes to life. The slight browning of the outside improves the flavour. The steaming of the inside softens the bread inside.

Why won't my flatbread puff up? ›

That's because the puff is steam-powered. For it to work, the dough must be neither too thick nor too thin, and be sufficiently hydrated so that the blast of heat from the oven quickly turns the moisture to steam that inflates the bread. One of the best ways to get this right is a kitchen scale.

How do you heat flatbread in the oven? ›

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the flatbread on a paperlined or lightly oiled baking pan. Cook in the oven for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the flatbread is heated through! Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

Does flatbread have to be heated? ›

It doesn't toast it just warms it up enough so it's soft and doesn't break apart or crumble when they fold it or while you eat it. I know most people aren't use to being told they "have" to order something a certain way but believe me if you don't heat the flatbread it's not edible.
