Flatbread with Shallot Herb Butter Cooking tips:

You can double this recipe to make 16 breads. If you notice your bread is cooking to fast, reduce your heat to medium-low for 1 minute. As you make the breads, your pan will hold more heat, so adjusting temperature may be required. If you cannot find a shallot use 4 cloves of garlic. Have fun mixing different herbs in the butter too!

Ingredients
  

Flatbread:

  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour plus more for rolling
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ cups water
  • 4 tablespoons oil

Shallot Herb Butter:

  • 1 stick unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 small shallot chopped fine
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 sprigs Italian parsley chopped fine

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl add the flour and kosher salt, mix together. Pour in the water and 2 tablespoons oil, mix until dough forms into a ball. Lightly dust a surface and knead dough 40 times, let dough rest for 5 minutes. Cut the dough in half, then cut each half into 4 equal parts and roll each into dough balls.
  • Lightly dust a surface and a rolling pin with flour, roll out each dough about 1/8 inch thick. Then evenly pierce with a fork. Lightly dust each bread with flour and stack to the side.
  • Turn on the heat to medium-high in a large skillet, add 1 teaspoon of oil and with a paper towel wipe oil out, cook bread for 1 minute on each side and repeat for each bread. Keep bread in a plastic storage bag at room temperature for 3 days for maximum freshness.
  • To make shallot herb butter, in a medium bowl add the butter, shallots, kosher salt and parsley, stir to combine and serve at room temperature. Butter will be good for 7 days.

    I have to make 3 recipies of these when indo them, why because the first batch is eaten before I can get to use the sauce. Seriously!!!! Delicious. Great to serve for brunch and I have served then as an appetizer. Love them on a Friday night with some red wine .
