CRISP ROSEMARY FLATBREAD
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F with a heavy baking sheet on rack in middle.
- Stir together flour, chopped rosemary, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Make a well in center, then add water and oil and gradually stir into flour with a wooden spoon until a dough forms. Knead dough gently on a work surface 4 or 5 times.
- Divide dough into 3 pieces and roll out 1 piece (keep remaining pieces covered with plastic wrap) on a sheet of parchment paper into a 10-inch round (shape can be rustic; dough should be thin).
- Lightly brush top with additional oil and scatter small clusters of rosemary leaves on top, pressing in slightly. Sprinkle with sea salt. Slide round (still on parchment) onto preheated baking sheet and bake until pale golden and browned in spots, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer flatbread (discard parchment) to a rack to cool, then make 2 more rounds (1 at a time) on fresh parchment (do not oil or salt until just before baking). Break into pieces.
CRISPY BEER FLAT BREAD
This is a very easy and fast to make snack or appetizer which can be served with your favorite dip, spread, salsa or sauce. But it is also delicious on its own. The beer in it adds a fantastic flavor and is the cause of the crispy bubbles which are formed during baking. The recipe is for one baking tray, but you can easily make it for a large number of guests. Men will (probably) like it with a glass of beer and a "hot" or "spicy" dip. And be prepared for a second or third serving, because this flat bread will gone fast. I have seen the making of this bread in a German TV show, but can't remember who make it. But whoever invented this bread, thank you for this fantastic flat bread.

Steps:
- Preheat oven (480-490 F, 250-260 C). Put the baking tray into the oven. So it will be heated up, too.
- Mix olive oil and garlic and set aside.
- Sieve flour with salt and add beer. Mix with hands until dough is formed. Knead dough for 5 minutes with slightly floured hands. Let rest dough for about 10 minutes.
- On a slightly floured working platform, roll out the dough with a rolling pin. It should be thin (if you like the bread very crispy roll out the dough very thin). Place the dough on baking paper (size of the baking tray).
- Brush the dough with the olive oil. Sprinkle it with herbs (you could use more or less than 1 tablespoon).
- Put dough (on baking paper) on the baking tray in the oven and bake for about 5 - 10 minutes until it is golden brown. During baking the bread will develop several "bubbles".
- Take out of the oven and let cool on a cooling rack. Serve slightly warm or cool.
- NOTE on herbs: use your favorite herbs. If you like the herbal flavors you can use more. But you could also leave them out completely. You could also use an "Italian herbs mixes". You can also use fresh herbs (if at hand).
- NOTE on olive oil: I only use the oil for brushing and don't use the garlic in it. If you like a garlicky styled bread, you can use the garlic for brushing, too.
CRISPY ROSEMARY SEA SALT FLATBREAD CRACKERS

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicon mat or parchment paper.
- Place flour, salt, sugar, and grated cheese in a mixing bowl. Stir together until well mixed. Add rosemary; drizzle with olive oil and add water. Mix with a fork until mixture comes together in a fairly sticky dough and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Transfer dough onto floured surface and add flour as you knead the dough. Knead until it no longer sticks to work surface, 4 to 5 minutes. Divide dough in half.
- Dust work surface with flour. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness or less. Brush or mist surface of dough very lightly with water. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Prick the entire surface of dough with the tines of a fork to prevent crackers from puffing too much when baking.
- Cut each rolled out half into about 30 pieces with a pizza wheel. You can cut them out in squares, rectangles, or triangles--your choice. Transfer onto prepared baking sheet with a bench scraper or your floured fingers (dough will be very sticky).
- Bake in preheated oven until perfectly browned and crunchy, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness.

GRILLED FLATBREAD WITH CRISPY PROSCIUTTO, RICOTTA AND VINCOTTO
Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium high. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the prosciutto and cook, turning, until crispy and brick red in color, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the prosciutto to a paper towel-lined plate and remove the pan from the heat. Brush the flatbread with the prosciutto oil on both sides.
- Add the flatbread to the grill and cook until golden brown and toasted, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove the flatbread from the grill and let cool 1 minute.
- Using a spatula, spread the ricotta all over the flatbread, leaving a small border along the edge. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Microwave the honey for 5 to 10 seconds just to loosen. Using a spoon, drizzle the honey over the ricotta and top with the crispy prosciutto. Drizzle with some vincotto and top with chives. Cut into pieces.
Tips:
- Choose the right flour: All-purpose flour is a good choice for flatbread, but you can also use bread flour or whole wheat flour. If you're using bread flour, be sure to add a little extra water to the dough, as it will be more absorbent.
- Make sure the dough is well-kneaded: Kneading the dough will help to develop the gluten, which will make the flatbread chewy and elastic. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise: After kneading, let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will help to develop the flavor of the flatbread and make it light and airy.
- Roll out the dough thinly: The thinner you roll out the dough, the crispier the flatbread will be. Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
- Cook the flatbread over high heat: Preheat your oven or grill to the highest heat setting. This will help to create a crispy crust on the flatbread.
- Top the flatbread with your favorite toppings: Once the flatbread is cooked, top it with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, vegetables, or meat. Be creative and experiment with different flavor combinations.
Conclusion:
Crispy flatbread is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. It's easy to make and can be customized to suit your own taste. With a little practice, you can make crispy flatbread that is as good as, or even better than, what you find at your favorite restaurant.
