Potato Flatbread Recipe

8/3/2020

This potato flatbread recipe is the best and a bread everyone will love! There is nothing quite like fresh baked bread. Plus you can add fresh produce from your garden to decorate it! I will share my recipe for the bread but you must use your creativity for the toppings! I recommend using fruits and vegetables straight from your garden! From my Back to Eden organic garden I added figs, tomatoes, zucchini, safflower, basil, thyme, oregano, chili peppers, pine nuts, garlic, and shallots! I added a beet dyed honey balsamic reduction to the tomatoes and figs which was absolutely delicious! Plus, a little organic olive oil on top! You can't go wrong so experiment and have fun!

Recipe

1 tsp. Dry Active Yeast
3/4 Cups Warm Water (Not Hot Water)
1/2 Cup of Mashed Potatoes (I prefer Yukon Gold Potatoes)
2 1/4 Cups of Flour
1 tsp. Salt
2 Tbl. Oil

Bake at 425° for 25 minutes.

Mix the yeast in with the warm water. Add in the mashed potatoes. Add the salt to the flour. Slowly stir in the flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Gentle knead together until the dough forms a ball. Do not over knead. Place in a large bowl and cover with a cloth. It should double in size in 30 minutes. Turn it onto a flat floured baking pan and press it into an oval shape about 8 inches long. Decorate however you please. Sprinkle a little salt and pour the oil over the top.

2. Organic Potatoes. I prefer organic Yukon Gold potatoes that have grown in my garden!

BUY POTATOES

3. Organic Flour. I prefer Central Milling's Organic Beehive All-Purpose Flour. It is made with unbleached organic hard red winter wheat and organic malted barley. Organic Beehive will give your biscuits, pancakes, quick breads, pie crusts and dinner rolls a perfectly soft, yet strong structure. It can even make killer baguettes! This is perfect for any yeast-risen or chemically leavened application making it a true “all purpose” baking flour.
