30 Minute Gluten-Free Cheese and Garlic Flatbread

Be the first to rate this recipe.

What is the difference between flatbread and a pizza? Pizza is such an iconic food that you may never have thought of it as a flatbread. But it is, of course, and it is just one of the dozens of regional flatbreads made all over Italy. Since I did not add any typical pizza toppings, I will call it a flatbread. This is probably one of my simplest gluten-free recipes this month, and it is so versatile. First, let me tell you about the recipe. This rustic flatbread is made with Italian herbs, fresh garlic and two kinds of cheese, so it has plenty of flavours. The dough is leavened with baking powder rather than yeast, unlike pizza or focaccia dough, so it’s quick and easy. The wonderful thing is, you can use it as a side with spaghetti Bolognese, soups and stews or make it into a stunning sandwich. My family loves the flatbread just as a snack. If you have leftovers, just pop them in a toaster, they toast beautifully
