Flatbread
- 250 g wheat flour 550
- 175 ml lukewarm water
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp dry yeast or ¼ cube fresh yeast
- 2-3 tbsp olive oil
- optionally sesame, black sesame, black cumin or other spices, herbs and seeds as topping

(1) Place all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly. If you use fresh yeast, dissolve it in the water.
(2) Add water and about a tablespoon of olive oil to the remaining ingredients and knead to form a smooth dough.
(3) Let the dough rise at room temperature for about an hour until it has increased significantly. (4) Place the risen dough on a floured work surface and shape into a loaf with floured hands.
(5) Place the flatbread on a baking tray lined with baking paper and use a knife to carve the typical flatbread pattern into the dough.
(6) Brush the surface with olive oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds, cumin and/or other toppings.
(7) Cover the flatbread blank again (e.g. with a second tray) and let it rise for about an hour.
(8) Preheat the oven to 230°C (top/bottom heat) and bake the flatbread for 12 to 14 minutes until the surface is lightly browned.

Notes:

When quartered, the flatbread can be cut across and filled to your heart's content.

Flatbread filled before baking tastes just as delicious, and you can also easily prepare it yourself.
