Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Vegetarian
Serves: 4 flatbreads
Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Water as needed
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, almond flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly until a cohesive dough begins to form.
- If the mixture seems too dry, add water one tablespoon at a time until the dough holds together and can be easily kneaded. The consistency should be smooth and pliable, not sticky.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball using your hands.
- On a clean surface dusted with almond flour, gently flatten each ball and use a rolling pin to roll out into thin, round flatbreads approximately 1/8 inch thick.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush lightly with olive oil.
- Carefully transfer each flatbread to the heated skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear and the bread becomes slightly crispy.
- Remove from heat and place on a cooling rack. Repeat the cooking process with remaining flatbreads.
- Serve warm as a side dish, with dips, or as a base for other toppings. These flatbreads can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Tips
- Perfect Dough Consistency: Ensure your dough is smooth and pliable. If it feels too dry, add water gradually, one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve the right texture.
- Rolling Technique: When rolling out the flatbreads, use almond flour to dust your surface and rolling pin. This prevents sticking and helps maintain the dough's integrity.
- Cooking Temperature: Make sure your skillet is at medium heat before adding the flatbreads. This allows for even cooking and the perfect golden-brown finish.
- Storage Secrets: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container. They can be enjoyed for up to two days, making them a great option for meal prep!
- Serving Suggestions: These flatbreads pair wonderfully with hummus, guacamole, or your favorite spreads. Get creative with toppings like fresh herbs, roasted veggies, or even a sprinkle of feta cheese for added flavor!
