Soft gluten-free flatbreads are a great alternative to bread, enjoyed plain or stuffed, hot or cold. Additionally, these flatbreads can be frozen, and after a few minutes in a hot oven, they will seem freshly baked. I’ve flavored them with mixed herbs like thyme and savory, but they are also great without.

Ingredients
- 4 cups flour (Molino di Diego bread mix)
- 1.6 cups flour (Nutrifree bread mix)
- 2 tsp fresh gluten-free yeast
- 4 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cups water
- as needed gluten-free rice flour (for dusting)
- as needed extra virgin olive oil
- as needed aromatic herbs
Tools
- 1 Bowl
- 1 Fork
- 2 Baking Sheets 30×40 cm oven trays
Procedure
Dissolve the yeast in a little lukewarm water taken from the 2 cups in the recipe in a bowl.
Add the flours and the oil, then pour all the water and mix with a fork.
Also add the salt and knead with wet or oiled hands.
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place at about 72°F for about 2 hours, until it doubles.
Deflate the dough and turn it onto a lightly floured work surface.
Cut pieces of dough, about 10-12, and form into balls.
Place each ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and flatten them with your hands into a round shape.
Cover with plastic wrap and let rise again in a warm place for about an hour.
Preheat the oven to 392°F, make indentations on the flatbreads with your fingertips.
Decorate with aromatic herbs, a pinch of salt on top, and a teaspoon of oil for each flatbread.
Bake for about 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and enjoy hot or cold.
WARNING: consult the Italian Celiac Association’s handbook and read ingredients carefully to ensure there is no gluten contamination.
Tips
They are also great when filled and can be frozen. Just heat them a bit, and they will be like freshly baked.
