GLUTEN-FREE FLATBREAD (1 BOWL, 20 MINUTES!)
Steps:
- In a medium mixing bowl add light coconut milk, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar and whisk to combine.
- Add baking powder, sea salt, garlic powder, and dried oregano and whisk to combine. The mixture will likely fluff up and foam from the reaction of the baking powder and apple cider vinegar. This is normal and good!
- Next, add coconut flour, oat flour, and potato starch and stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Let rest 5 minutes uncovered.
- At this point you should have a dough that is malleable and very slightly tacky but doesn't stick to your hands. The dough should start pulling away from the sides of the bowl when the right amount of moisture is achieved, and it shouldn't be crumbly at all. Add a bit more of each flour until you reach the right consistency.
- Scoop out 1 ball of dough (~3 Tbsp in size) and place between two pieces of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to roll into a thin oval shape slightly larger than 1/8-inch thick. For fluffier, thicker flatbread roll to slightly less than 1/4-inch thick and cook slightly longer. NOTE: If sticking or too tacky, add a light dusting of GF flour to the dough while rolling out (optional - shouldn't be necessary).
- Heat a skillet (cast iron is best, or non-stick) over medium/medium-high heat. Once hot, spray or drizzle with a little oil. Then use hands to carefully transfer the dough to the pan. If it cracks at all, just carefully and quickly patch back together with your hands (be careful not to touch the hot skillet).
- Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the underside is golden brown. Bubbles may form while it's cooking - that's normal and good. Flip carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Lower heat as needed to ensure it doesn't burn. You'll know it's done when both sides are golden brown.
- Repeat this process until all dough is used (~6 large or 10-12 mini flatbreads as the original recipe is written).
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator or at room temperature for up to 2-3 days. To freeze, place cooked, cooled flatbread in a freezer-safe container or bag (adding parchment paper between each flatbread will prevent sticking) and freeze for up to 1 month. As with most bread, best when fresh.
- To serve, either heat from frozen in a toaster oven, thaw overnight and then heat in a skillet, or microwave from frozen until warm.

Steps:
- Add the flour, baking powder and yoghurt to a large bowl.
- Mix with a wooden spoon at first to roughly combine then get your hands in there and knead the ingredients until they are properly combined and you are left with a pliable dough. If the mixture is too dry add a little water, if too wet sprinkle with extra flour until you get the consistency pictured below.
- Add the olives and sundried tomato slices onto the dough and combine to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout. Don't overmix though or your sundried tomatoes with completely meld into the dough (not a bad thing really, as they will still taste great, but visually I prefer to have the red tomato stripes running through the flatbread).
- Lightly flour a board and rolling pin. Take a sixth of the dough and roll into a ball shape. Flatten it out with the rolling pin until it is around 5mm thick. OR If you are rolling pin-less or in hurry, you can always flatten them with you hands for a more rustic finish. I often do this as it's so quick!
- Heat a griddle pan over a medium-low flame - oil is optional, these can be dry-fried or simply spritz the pan with a tiny bit of olive oil for a more golden finish. Now pop your raw gluten free flatbread into the pan and allow to cook on each side for around 3-5 minutes. They will rise slightly during cooking, giving a nice light (yet still satisyingly doughy) interior.
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you have a neat little stack of gluten free flatbread and then you are ready to serve! These are best eaten straight away while they are warm, or put aside and blast in the microwave just before you are ready to serve.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the almond flour and tapioca starch. Add the salt and garlic powder, if using. Add the coconut milk and whisk until a smooth, thick batter forms.
- Melt 1 teaspoon coconut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is at an even, moderate heat, add 1/3 cup of the batter and let it spread out to about an 8-inch circle (although you can make the flatbread large or smaller, if desired). Cook the flatbread on the first side until tiny bubbles begin to form on the surface, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate or wire rack. Repeat with more coconut oil and the remaining batter.
- Serve the flatbreads while warm and crisp. If desired, brush with butter or ghee and sprinkle with chopped herbs--or roll up your choice of optional fillings in the flatbread. Refrigerate any leftover flatbread in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

GLUTEN-FREE PIZZA CRUST OR FLATBREAD
This recipe is for a crust that can be used for pizza or flatbreads. After 2 years of being GF, this is the best pizza crust/flatbread recipe I have. It is based on trial and error in an effort to improve other recipes. My kids say this is better than our homemade wheat flour crusts.

Steps:
- For Flatbread:.
- Blend rice, quinoa, ground flax, tahini, water, garlic and herbs in a food processor. Stir in sesame and flax seeds, and add salt to taste. Turn mixture out onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten the mixture to about 1/8 inch using wet hands (or a rolling pin...or both). Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 3x3 squares and bake in a preheated 300F oven for 35 minutes Let cool 15 mins then use a spatula to carefully remove your 'bread' slices from the pan. Wrap tightly and store in the fridge.
- For Crackers:.
- Same instructions as above, except you can cut the dough into whatever shapes/sizes you want. Bake 45-50 minutes, until the crackers are golden-brown, being careful not to burn. Let cool 15 mins before carefully breaking them apart. Store in an airtight container (in the fridge if it'll take you more than 2-3 days to eat them...which I highly doubt.).

Tips:
- Use a variety of gluten-free flours: This will help to create a more flavorful and textured flatbread. Some good options include almond flour, coconut flour, and tapioca flour.
- Be careful not to overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together, then stop.
- Let the dough rest before rolling it out: This will help the dough to relax and make it easier to work with.
- Use a hot skillet or griddle: This will help to create a crispy flatbread.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the flatbreads will not cook evenly.
- Serve the flatbreads immediately: Flatbreads are best served warm. You can top them with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, vegetables, or meat.
Conclusion:
Gluten-free flatbreads are a delicious and versatile food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create a variety of flatbreads that will please everyone at your table.
