Why You’ll Love This Recipe

  • Quick & Easy: From start to finish, you’ll have fresh flatbreads in under 15 minutes.
  • Simple Ingredients: Made with pantry staples like flour, olive oil, and garlic.
  • Versatile: Perfect as a side dish, snack, or base for wraps and pizzas.
  • Packed with Flavor: The garlic sauce takes these flatbreads to the next level.

Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Flatbreads:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (240 grams)
  • 2 tsp baking powder (8 grams)
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt (2.85 grams)
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (30 ml)
  • 2/3 cup water (168 ml)

For the Garlic Sauce:

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (30 ml)
  • 1 tbsp freshly chopped parsley (3.8 grams)
  • 4 cloves garlic

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Make the Dough

Start by combining your dry ingredients. In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and sea salt. Once combined, add the olive oil and water. Stir everything together until a dough starts to form.

Now it’s time to get your hands involved! Knead the dough in the bowl until it’s smooth and well-combined. Shape it into a ball and set it aside.

2. Divide & Shape the Dough

Sprinkle a clean surface with a little flour to prevent sticking. Place your ball of dough on the surface and cut it in half. Roll each half into a smaller ball, then divide each ball into four equal pieces. This will give you a total of eight pieces of dough.

Take one piece at a time and roll it out into a flatbread shape about 1/8 inch thick. Don’t worry about making them perfectly round—rustic shapes add charm!

3. Heat the Pan

Heat a large grilling pan over medium heat. While the pan is warming up, brush one side of each flatbread with a light layer of olive oil.

4. Cook the Flatbreads

Once the pan is hot, place your first flatbread in the pan with the oiled side down. Brush the top side with a little more olive oil. Cook for about 75 seconds on one side, then flip it over to cook the other side for another 75 seconds.

While the flatbread is cooking, prepare your garlic sauce.

5. Make the Garlic Sauce

In a small bowl, mix together 2 tbsp of olive oil, freshly chopped parsley, and shredded garlic cloves. Stir until well combined.

6. Add the Garlic Sauce

After flipping the flatbread, spoon a small amount of garlic sauce onto the cooked side and spread it evenly across the surface. Once the second side is done cooking, remove the flatbread from the pan and transfer it to a plate.

Repeat this process until all your flatbreads are cooked.

Serving Suggestions

These garlicky flatbreads are best enjoyed fresh off the pan while they’re warm and soft. Serve them as:

  • A side dish for soups, stews, or curries.
  • A base for wraps or sandwiches.
  • A snack with dips like hummus or tzatziki.
  • A quick pizza crust topped with your favorite ingredients!

Recipe Notes

  • For extra flavor, try sprinkling some grated Parmesan cheese on top of the flatbreads after adding the garlic sauce.
  • If you don’t have fresh parsley, dried parsley or even fresh cilantro works as a substitute.
  • These flatbreads are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to two days. Reheat them in a pan or microwave before serving.

Final Thoughts

This incredible 5-minute garlic flatbread recipe is proof that delicious food doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or simply looking for a quick snack, these flatbreads are sure to become a staple in your kitchen.

So grab your ingredients and give this recipe a try—you’ll love how easy and satisfying it is! Let me know in the comments how you enjoyed your flatbreads or if you tried any fun variations!

Description

Quick, flavorful, and made with just a few pantry staples—these garlic flatbreads come together in minutes! With a soft interior, crisp edges, and a delicious garlic-parsley topping, this is the perfect recipe for a fast side dish, snack, or appetizer.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Flatbreads:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (240 grams)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder (8 grams)
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt (2.85 grams)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (30 ml)
  • ⅔ cup water (168 ml)

For the Garlic Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (30 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley (3.80 grams)
  • 4 cloves garlic, grated or finely minced

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and sea salt. Stir to mix the dry ingredients.
Add in the olive oil and water, then mix with a spoon or spatula until a dough forms. Knead with your hands until smooth and well combined. Form the dough into a ball.
Lightly flour a clean surface. Place the dough on the surface, divide it in half, and shape each half into a ball. Cut each ball into 4 equal pieces to make 8 total.
Preheat a large grill pan over medium heat.
Roll each dough piece into a flatbread about ⅛-inch thick.
Before placing each flatbread in the pan, lightly brush one side with olive oil. Place it oil-side down in the pan. Brush the top side with a bit more olive oil.
While the flatbread cooks, mix the garlic sauce by combining olive oil, chopped parsley, and grated garlic in a bowl. Stir to combine.

Cook the flatbread for about 75 seconds per side. After flipping, spread a spoonful of garlic sauce on top.
Remove once both sides are golden and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Serve warm and enjoy immediately.


Notes

Use a cast iron grill pan for best results.

Fresh garlic and parsley give the best flavor—avoid dried substitutes.

Perfect served alongside soups, salads, or as a base for quick pizzas.
