Here’s a delicious, simple recipe for Cheesy Carrot Flatbreads—soft, savory, and perfect for a snack or light meal:
Ingredients (makes 4 flatbreads)
- 1 cup grated carrot (about 2 medium carrots)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (can use whole wheat for a healthier version)
- ½ cup grated cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 2 tbsp yogurt (optional, for softness)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- ¼ tsp black pepper or chili flakes (optional, for a kick)
- 2–3 tbsp oil (plus extra for cooking)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough
- In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
- Add the grated carrot, cheese, and yogurt. Mix well.
- Gradually add 2–3 tbsp oil (or water if needed) and knead into a soft, non-sticky dough. Let it rest for 10–15 minutes.
- Shape the Flatbreads
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions.
- Roll each portion into a small ball, then flatten into a round or oval flatbread (about ¼ inch thick).
- Cook the Flatbreads
- Heat a non-stick pan or skillet over medium heat.
- Place one flatbread on the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles appear. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Brush lightly with oil if desired.
- Serve
- Enjoy warm with yogurt, chutney, or a fresh salad.
Tips
- Add herbs like cilantro, parsley, or oregano for extra flavor.
- For a spicier version, mix in finely chopped green chili or smoked paprika.
- These flatbreads can also be baked at 180°C (350°F) for 12–15 minutes if you prefer.
