Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 25-30 minutes or until deep golden brown, stirring occasionally. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute longer., Preheat oven to 425°.

Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Make the spice mixture by combining all of the seasonings in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Put the flour, sugar, salt, pepper and olives in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine. Add the olive oil and stir vigorously with a fork. Add the water and continue to stir until a ball forms. Sprinkle a work surface liberally with flour and turn the dough out onto the surface. Knead until the dough is velvety smooth, about 2 minutes. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the dough from the refrigerator and flatten into a disk on a floured surface. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out as thinly as possible into an oval. Roll the dough onto the pin and transfer it to a baking sheet that has been brushed with olive oil.
• Brush the dough with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle with the spice mixture. Place the pan in the oven until the bread is crisp and deep golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool, and break into pieces. The flatbread can be made up to 2 days in advance, wrapped in plastic wrap, and kept in a dry place.

Steps:

• Mix 1 cup grated Gruyere, 3 tablespoons softened butter, 2 teaspoons chopped rosemary or thyme, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Spread on 2 pieces lavash (or other flatbread); top with 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion. Bake at 425 degrees F on a parchment-lined baking sheet until golden and crisp, 10 minutes. Season with salt; cut into pieces.

Steps:

• Press 12 ounces pizza dough into an 8-by-12-inch rectangle on a floured parchment-lined inverted baking sheet. Rub with 2 tablespoons olive oil, then top with 1/2 cup shredded cheddar and 1/2 thinly sliced red onion. Slide the parchment onto a preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in a 475˚ F oven; bake until browned, 9 to 11 minutes. Top with sea salt and chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium high heat in a large skillet.
• Add onions; cook until wilted& starting to brown.
• Add sugar, vinegar, salt& pepper.
• Reduce heat& cook gently for 15- 25 minutes or until onions are caramelized& brown.
• Cool.
• Roll pastry into a rectangle approximately 12 x 16 inches. I don't use the sheets of puff pastry - I prefer to use the 375gm package of Tenderflake Puff Pastry. I start rolling it out on my counter, then I transfer it to my baking tray (which has been lined with parchment paper) and roll the pastry to fit the tray. Since puff pastry is very "forgiving", you can "cut & paste" if necessary.
• Spread onions over pastry.
• Dot with cheese& sprinkle with chervil.
• If you are preparing this for a party, you can prepare to this point and refrigerate- then bake later.
• Bake in preheated 400F oven for 20- 25 minutes or until cheese has melted& pastry is crisp.
• When removed from the oven, it will be puffed right up but allow it to cool for 5 minutes & it will fall back down. Cut into 20 serving pieces - this is easier done with kitchen scissors instead of a knife - then cut each piece in half diagonally.

Steps:

• For bread dough:
• Whisk 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon warm water and yeast in small bowl; let stand until yeast is dissolved, about 10 minutes.
• Mix flour, nigella seeds, and salt in medium bowl. Add yeast mixture and stir with wooden spoon until mixture clumps together. Add butter; mix until incorporated. Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Divide dough into 6 equal pieces; roll each into ball. Place on baking sheet; cover with plastic wrap. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep covered and refrigerate.)
• For caramelized onions:
• Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion wedges to skillet and cook without turning until beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Carefully turn onions over; reduce heat to medium and continue to cook until onions are tender and brown, occasionally stirring gently, about 10 minutes. Add thyme and honey; cook 1 minute. Stir in vinegar. Seasonto taste with salt and pepper. Remove skillet from heat. Cool. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled, about 1 hour. Whisk crème fraîche and egg in small bowl to blend. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Sprinkle 2 rimmed baking sheets lightly with semolina flour. Roll out each dough ball to 5-inch round. Transfer 3 rounds to each prepared baking sheet. Let rest 10 minutes. Pierce dough rounds all over with fork. Spread 1 generous tablespoon crème fraîche mixture over each dough round, leaving 1/4-inch plain border. Arrange onions evenly atop each; drizzle lightly with crème fraîche mixture (mixture may spill over edges of dough).
• Bake flatbreads until crusts are puffed and golden, about 12 minutes. Transfer to plates; sprinkle with chives.
