I Know It's Here, But I Can't Find Easy Flatbread Recipe

A few weeks ago someone posted a recipe for an easy-to-make flatbread. I remember the poster saying that she mixes up a bunch of the dry ingredients ahead of time, and that it is made in a square pan (I think). I've looked a couple times but can't find it. Does anybody remember it? After last night's bicuit disaster, I'm looking for something I can use for breakfast sandwiches, and this might work if I can ever find it.

Thanks

It wasn't me, but here is a recipe I use that is really good. Don't know if it's the same one you were looking for or not.

Flat Bread for sandwich wraps

1 cup sorghum flour

1/2 cup tapioca starch

2 Tbsp sugar

2 tsp xanthan gum

1 Tbsp yeast

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 cup water

1 tsp cider vinegar

2 Tbsp olive oil

2 eggs

Directions

1. Mix together all dry ingredients

2. In a heavy mixer, combine wet ingredients (water, vinegar, oil, and eggs).

3. Slowly add dry ingredients to well blended wet ingredients.

4. Beat on medium/medium high speed for 4 minutes.

5. Dust a large cookie sheet with oil/flour

6. Scrape dough onto oiled/dusted pan and press as thinly as possible.

7. Using a fork, tap indentations across the entire dough.

8. Preheat oven to 425F. Put pan of water on lower rack.

9. Bake for 11-15 minutes or until the top is slightly browned.

10. Cool 15-30 minutes before using. It will become flexible and soft.

NOTE: Cut and wrap in large Ziplock bags. Do not refrigerate.

I remember it well. It's on page 6 right now under "Very good bread recipe". Then scroll to the middle under FiddleFaddle where it says ready in one hour. Another comment says where they put it in bags, just read all of FiddleFaddle's comments

This is it! Thank you so much. I may give one of these a whirl tonight. I have some buttermilk waiting to use up.

I now double the recipe and make it in a 9 x 13 pan, since my kids scarf it down so quickly.

Success!

I made two batches last night. The first I used Betty Hagman's bean flour mix for the flour, and baked it in big muffin tins. My plan was to use them for a breakfast sammy. The other batch I used Annalise Robert's rice flour mix and baked it in a 6x10" glass dish.

Both turned out great. I made a sausage and cheese sammy this AM, then for lunch I just had the other as a fluffer-nutter sammy. Both were excellent. Nothing like fluffer-nutter.

Tonight my plan was to roast some peppers and use them and some prosciutto for pizza. I may use the rest of this bread fr a little thicker crust than I usually make.

Next up will be the other recipe bbuster posted. I'll probably do that this weekend.

Great, you sound like a great cook!!! I don't yet have Annalise Robert's book yet but its on my list for the next one to get. Could you please post her flour mix?? Dumb Q?...what's a sammy :unsure: ...a sandwich? The only sammy I know of is a 9 year old boy from Hawaii and Romania and Idaho (he travels a bit unlike me). I am from the mountains of Idaho and have never heard it used before. Thanks!! :P

Thanks to Fiddlefaddle too...I am still going to try it soon ;)

...what's a sammy :unsure: ...a sandwich?

Yep. Cooking is a passion of mine (along with eating), and a sammy is a sammich.

From memory (I'll check later and LYK)

2 cups brown rice flour (authentic Foods Ultrafine really dioes work best, but Bob's is OK)

2/3 cup tapioca flour

1/3 cup potato starch (not flour) - I may have these last two reversed

I'm going to experiment with this recipe. I think I will try some millet and then teff included in the mix. I like the taste of millet. I also like sorghum so I'm looking forward to bbuster's take on a flatbread.

I just got done eating the pizza I made with fiddlefaddle's flat bread. I sliced it through the middle so I had two thin pieces. I heated up the grill and then sliced a fresh pinapple and put them on the grill. I also put a red and orange pepper on. Then I took some plain spaghetti sauce and added some addtional basil to it. After the peppers were charred I put them in a ziploc bag for 5 mintues and then peeled off the charred skin. I put the sauce, cut-up pineapple, some chopped peppers, and proscuitto on the bread, and then put some shredded mozzarella and fresh parmesan cheese on top. I put the pizza on the grill until the cheese was melted. I must say it was one of the best pizza I have ever made. The bread got crispy on the bottom, and not soggy at all. It was a winner.

Purple, I had the tapioca and potato switched. It is 1/3 tapioca and 2/3 potato.

I made this on Sunday, and I like the way it tastes, but it was a lot more work than the skillet flax bread in this thread.

I took this bread last night and cut it a size to use for burgers. I then grilled some turkey burgers. I made a sauce using cream cheese, mayo, and diced roasted red and orange peppers. Then I melted brie on top, and put some proscuitto on top of that. WOW. It was really good. Then today for klunch I used this bread for a fluffer-nutter sandwich, and it was very good.

fluffernutter = marshmallow cream (the fluffer) and peanut butter (the nutter) = YUM

Well, I just HAD to try this recipe and it's fabulous! So fast and easy! Thanks for the recipe!!!

(I'm adding it below for anyone who wants to give it a go!)

This is a very easy, quick (READY IN LESS THAN 1 HOUR), delicious bread--my kids scarf it down, gluten-free or not. I bake it in an 8" x 8" square pan, and then cut it into 6 small rectangles, which I then split to make kid-size sandwiches. It's kind of like a focaccia, and you could easily turn it into focaccia by adding basil, garlic, cheese, etc.

I think it's nearly as good as Lorka's flax bread, mentioned above, but much, much faster and easier. Hers is the best, though!

If you are dairy free, you can use soy or rice milk with a tablespoon of vinegar instead of buttermilk.

If you don't have a gluten-free flour replacer, use 1/2 cup brown rice flour (Bob's Red Mill is fine). 1/2 cup potato starch (or corn starch or tapioca starch or any combination of the 3) and 1/2 tsp xanthan gum.

QUICKIE FLAX BREAD

Servings: 8

Active Prep Time: 5 - 10 minutes (depending on how organized you are in your kitchen )

Cooking Time: 16-20 minutes, 10 minutes cooling time

1/4 cup flaxmeal

3/4 cup gluten-free flour replacement (I use Betterbatter)

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. baking powder

1 heaping tsp yeast (for flavor, not for rising)

1/2 tsp. kosher salt

1 Tbsp. sugar

3/4 cup buttermilk (or 1/2 cup plain whole milk yogurt plus 1/4 cup milk)

1 large egg

1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil (canola works, too)

PAM, or similar cooking spray (make sure it's gluten-free)

Cornmeal for dusting pan (optional)

Preheat the oven to 450

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
