Here’s a tasty recipe for Cheesy Carrot Flatbreads—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, with a savory cheesy flavor and a hint of sweetness from carrots.
Ingredients (makes 4 flatbreads)
- 1 cup grated carrots (about 2 medium carrots)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
- ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
- 2 tbsp plain yogurt or sour cream
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp dried herbs (optional: oregano, thyme, or mixed herbs)
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil or melted butter (for cooking)
Instructions
- Prepare the dough
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and herbs.
- Stir in the grated carrots and shredded cheese.
- Add yogurt and 3–4 tbsp water (or more if needed) to form a soft, slightly sticky dough.
- Shape the flatbreads
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions.
- Lightly flour your surface and roll each portion into a round or oval about ¼ inch thick.
- Cook the flatbreads
- Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Brush lightly with olive oil.
- Cook each flatbread for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through.
- Serve warm
- Enjoy as a snack, with a dip, or alongside soups and salads.
✅ Tips:
- You can add garlic powder or finely chopped herbs for extra flavor.
- Swap yogurt for milk if you prefer a slightly lighter dough.
- Optional: sprinkle a little extra cheese on top while cooking for a cheesy crust.
If you want, I can also make a quick oven-baked version that’s easier if you’re making more than 4 flatbreads. Do you want me to do that?
