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

Directions

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.

    We make this constantly. We don't use thyme and the bread still has plenty of flavor from the yeast. It's nearly impossible to screw up, just don't roll it too thin. For dessert we slather the inside with butter and cinnamon and sugar, fold it in half, toss on the charcoal grill, de.lish.

    This was delicious. I did warm up the water first. I also melted butter and put minced garlic in it, then when the flat bread was done cooking, I brushed it on. I'll keep this recipe forever it is great.
