Begin by pre heating your oven to 475 degrees F In a stand mixer or large bowl pour 1 tsp instant or regular yeast 1 tsp granulated sugar 3/4 Cup warm water (105-110 degrees F) Allow it to rest and bloom for 5 minutes

Gently whisk together until it is cloudy, then add 2 Cups all purpose flour 1 tsp salt 1 tsp olive oil Mix on low until a shaggy ball is formed

Scoop the dough out onto a floured work surface Knead the dough several times, until it is elastic and holds together in a ball shape with a smooth surface

Place the dough ball in an oiled bowl Cover and allow it to rest in a warm spot on your kitchen counter for 45 minutes Once done resting, turn it out on your floured surface again

Roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness with a floured rolling pin Gently move to a baking sheet covered in parchment paper, or a silpat mat

At this point, the flatbread is ready to bake and be used for any desired purpose If baking without toppings, set it in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown If baking as a pizza, brush with olive oil and assemble your pizza, then bake

We hope you enjoy this simple Flatbread!
