Homemade Flat Bread
Recipe courtesy Kathleen Daelemans

Ingredients
1 package active yeast
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
3/4 cup water (might need more)
1 teaspoon oil

Instructions
In the bowl of a food processor combine the yeast,
sugar, flour, salt and thyme. Pulse to combine. Add the water in a steady stream

until the dough begins to form a ball, turn it on to a board and knead with the
heel of your hand until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Coat a bowl with oil. Place dough in bowl, and cover with a damp cloth. Put in a
warm spot to rise until double in size, about 1 hour.

When the dough has doubled in size, punch the dough, scrape it onto the counter
and knead it lightly into a smooth ball. Cut into 20 pieces and with a rolling pin
roll out to form very flat 5 to 6-inch circles.

Preheat a stove top grill pan over medium high. Do not oil. Place bread on hot
grill and cook without touching it until you see bubbles on the surface, about 1
to 2 minutes. Turn and continue to cook 1 to 2 minutes more or until bread has
puffed up. Serve immediately.
