Instructions

1. Step 1: In a small bowl, combine 2 tsp active dry yeast, 1 tsp sugar, and 200 ml warm water. Stir gently and let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, whisk 350 g all-purpose flour with 1 tsp salt and 1 tbsp each of chopped fresh rosemary and thyme. Make a well in the center and pour in the activated yeast mixture along with 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil.
3. Step 3: Mix with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
4. Step 4: Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Punch down the risen dough and divide into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 7-inch circle about 1/4 inch thick.
5. Step 5: Place flatbreads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush each with 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil mixed with 2 minced garlic cloves and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt.
6. Step 6: Bake flatbreads for 8-10 minutes until golden spots appear and edges are slightly crisp. Serve warm with extra olive oil and herbs for dipping.
