Simple Sesame Flatbreads Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a baking sheet under the broiler. Divide 1 pound refrigerated pizza dough into 4 balls; coat with olive oil and season with salt. Roll in 1/4 cup sesame seeds. Thinly stretch out the dough and broil, two at a time, on the hot baking sheet until golden, 3 minutes per side. Serve with plain Greek yogurt mixed with harissa and olive oil.

Steps:

• Tip the flour into a large bowl and add 1 tsp salt. Add the yogurt, 2 tbsp water and the sesame seeds, then mix to make a dough (it'll be quite wet). Flour the work surface and tip out the dough. Divide into six pieces. Working with one ball at a time, and keeping the others covered with a tea towel, roll into flatbreads about 0.5cm thick.
• Heat a large griddle or frying pan until really hot. Brush one flatbread with oil, then put in the pan, oil-side down. Cook for 2-3 mins each side until bubbles appear on the surface and the underneath is brown. Turn over and cook for another 2 mins, then transfer to a plate. Continue cooking the remaining flatbreads. Wrap them in foil and keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve, or serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high and dust a non-stick baking sheet with a little flour. Mix the self-raising flour, sesame seeds, a pinch of salt and a grind of black pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the natural yogurt and milk or water, then mix well to form a soft dough.
• Divide the dough into 4 and press each piece into an oval approx 5mm thick. Place on the sheet and grill for 3 mins on each side until puffed and golden. Brush with a little olive oil before serving, if you like.

Steps:

• Make dough:
• Pulse together flour, baking powder, and salt in a food processor until well mixed. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. (Alternatively, whisk together dry ingredients and cut in butter with a pastry blender.) Transfer to a bowl and stir in yogurt and 1 cup sesame seeds until mixture forms a dough. Divide dough into quarters, wrapping each in plastic wrap. Chill 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Make glaze:
• Stir together eggs, sugar, and soy sauce with a fork until sugar is dissolved.
• Roll out dough:
• Divide 1 dough quarter into 12 equal portions and form each into a 4-inch log with your hands. With a floured rolling pin, roll out each log into a 12- to 14-inch strip on a lightly floured surface. Transfer strips to 2 greased baking sheets. Brush strips with glaze and sprinkle with one fourth of remaining sesame seeds.
• Bake crackers:
• Bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, 20 minutes total, or until glaze is golden brown and crackers are crisp. Transfer to racks to cool. Make more crackers in same manner.
