Ingredients

Scale

Garlic Topping

  • 2 tablespoons Garlic-Infused Oil (use for low FODMAP option)
  • 2 tablespoons Butter (dairy-free substitute for vegan option)
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley (chopped finely)
  • 2 cloves Minced Garlic Paste (for traditional option)

Dough

  • 1 cup Plain Yoghurt (use plain coconut yoghurt for vegan option)
  • 2 cups Gluten Free Self-Raising Flour (blend tailored for gluten-free recipes)
  • 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum (optional for dough texture)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder (optional for additional leavening)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (enhances flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C with fan or 220°C conventional to prepare for the final baking of the garlic bread pizzas.
  2. Prepare Garlic Topping: In a mixing bowl, combine the garlic-infused oil or butter, minced garlic paste, and chopped fresh parsley until well mixed to create a flavorful garlic topping.
  3. Make Dough: In a separate bowl, mix together the plain yoghurt, gluten-free self-raising flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt until a cohesive dough forms.
  4. Knead Dough: Lightly flour a work surface and knead the dough gently for 1-2 minutes to bring it together smoothly, then divide the dough into 4-5 equal pieces.
  5. Roll Dough: Roll each piece of dough out to just over 0.5cm thickness, preparing them for cooking.
  6. Pan Cook Dough: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and cook each rolled dough piece for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  7. Add Garlic Topping: Spread a generous amount of the prepared garlic topping evenly over the cooked flatbreads.
  8. Bake in Oven: Transfer the topped breads to the preheated oven and bake for about 5 minutes to melt the topping and enhance flavors.
  9. Serve: Remove from the oven, slice into pieces, and serve hot for the best flavor and texture experience.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, substitute dairy butter with a plant-based alternative and use plain coconut yoghurt instead of dairy yoghurt.
  • The garlic-infused oil is a great option for those following a low FODMAP diet to avoid high FODMAP garlic content.
  • Xanthan gum is optional but helps improve the texture and elasticity of gluten-free dough.
  • Make sure not to overcook the flatbreads in the pan to avoid dryness before baking.
  • This recipe yields approximately 4-5 small garlic bread pizzas, perfect as snacks or appetizers.
