Grain-Free Garlic Flatbread with Butternut and Bacon Dip
** sidenote, whenever you see tapioca flour or tapioca starch or arrowroot flour or arrowroot starch in a recipe, those are all interchangeable. Use any you can find. I love tapioca flour because it is so cheap compared to any other flour!)**
We use this recipe as a grain-free pizza crust, putting the toppings on after we cook it.
OR, (and this is truly our fave!) we bake it, cut it apart into triangles, put a little olive oil and garlic salt on top (careful-not all garlic salt is created equal. Get a good one to avoid the additives!). Then for a dip for the flatbread, I cook some butternut squash, mash it with a little garlic or garlic salt, fresh chopped basil, and put some tiny pieces of ham or bacon into it. So yummy, we have this more than I should admit!
I have never actually made it with the herbs that they say to use, but I'm sure it would be excellent that way, too:
Ingredients
- 1 cup tapioca flour (like this)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour (like this)
- 1/2 tsp unrefined sea salt (I use this one)
- 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk (where to buy BPA and additive free coconut milk)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil (like this) or avocado oil (like this)
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 1-2 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
- olive oil and extra sea salt for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450’F and place a pizza stone, cast iron skillet, or very thick pizza pan into oven to heat up.
- Gently heat up coconut milk and ghee in a small sauce pan until very warm but not boiling
- Combine tapioca flour, sifted coconut flour, and salt in a large bowl. Pour coconut/ghee mixture on top. Mix until thoroughly combined. Allow to sit for a couple of minutes to cool and for coconut flour to absorb.
- Add beaten egg and mix again until full combined.
- CAREFULLY remove hot stone/pan from the oven, cover with unbleached parchment paper, and pour mixture into center. Using a spatula, evenly spread mixture until it is about 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle on rosemary and garlic.
- Bake for 9-12 minutes, depending on how crispy you like it. Garnish with olive oil and sea salt.
