Easy Seeded Flatbread

10 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/3 cup small mixed seeds (I like a mix of toasted sunflower seeds, nigella seeds, sesame seeds, mustard seeds, and coriander seeds)
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup buttermilk, cold
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 pinch flaky salt, for sprinkling

Directions

  1. 1
    In a medium bowl, whisk together dry ingredients, flour through sugar. Add the seeds and scallions and stir to coat.
  2. 2
    Make a well in the center, then pour in the buttermilk. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir until you have a shaggy dough. Turn the dough onto a lightly-oiled surface (like a plastic cutting board) and gently knead it into a cohesive ball. Return ball of dough to bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel for 30 minutes. Heat the oven to 300° F.
  3. 3
    Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into four. With a floured pin, roll one ball out to 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick, about 6 inches long and 4 inches wide.
  4. 4
    In a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron), heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high. When the oil is very hot, add the flatbread. Cook until deeply charred, about 3 minutes, then flip and continue to cook, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet, sprinkle with flaky salt, and keep warm in the oven while you repeat the process with the remaining three pieces of dough and remaining olive oil.
  5. 5
    Enjoy warm, or wrap in aluminum foil, store at room temperature, and reheat in the oven the next day.
