Almond Flour Flatbread
- 1 cup Blanched Almond Flour, Honeyville Brand
- 1/2 cups Plus 2 Tablespoons Of Tapioca Flour Plus Extra For Flouring Hands And Surfaces
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian Seasonings
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/2 cups Warm Water
- 2 Tablespoons Psyllium Husks
- 1 teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Olive Oil
- 1 whole Large Egg
- 1.
- Preheat oven to 425 F.
- 2.
- In a large mixing bowl (I recommend you use your stand mixer), mix together almond flour, tapioca flour, salt, Italian seasoning and baking soda.
- Set aside.
- 3.
- In a small bowl, mix together the warm water and psyllium husks.
- Stir until thick.
- 4.
- Add the psyllium mixture, vinegar, olive oil and egg into the dry ingredients and mix well (I use a stand mixer).
- Mixture will be thick and sticky.
- 5.
- Spray a pizza stone with gluten free casein free cooking oil and sprinkle with tapioca flour.
- 6.
- To prevent sticking, keep hands well-coated with tapioca flour and press the dough into the pan until you reach your desired thickness.
- (If your batter is extremely sticky, sprinkle a small amount of flour onto dough as needed.)
- 7.
- Bake for 4-5 minutes, or until crust feels firm to the touch.
- 8.
- Add toppings (if using) and bake an additional 10-15 minutes, or until crust is nicely browned.
- If you dont use toppings, continue to cook the bread itself for the remaining time.
- For toppings: If you serve it as an appetizer with olive oil and balsamic vinegar you can brush on some melted Earth Balance butter and minced garlic!
- Yum!
- *Psyllium husks can be used as a replacement for xanthan gum and pectin (which I usually use to help bind and add stretchiness).
- When you mix the psyillium husks with water it makes a thick glutenous-like substance that works wonders for gluten free baking.
- It makes the bread soft and tender while still holding together very well.
- Psyllium is a fiber used in colon cleansing and it can be found at amazon.com or at your local health food store.
- Be sure to look for whole psyllium husks.
