Ingredients & Substitutions

Flatbread

Butter

I use salted butter. If you choose to use unsalted butter, you will want to add a nice pinch of salt when making the garlic sauce.Please don’t use margarine, the water content is too high and will leave your finished product sad and soggy.

Grated Garlic

I use grated garlic because it doesn’t leave behind big chunks of garlic. You can substitute with garlic that has been pressed with a garlic press, your piece may just be on the bigger side.

Fresh Parsley

I use fresh parsley in all my recipes that call for parsley, I think it adds a nice fresh flavor. If you don’t have any, use dried parsley, but you may want to let the sauce sit for a few minutes before using it so that the parsley rehydrates a bit.

Olive Oil

I use extra virgin olive oil for my flatbreads. You can use light-tasting olive oil if you prefer.

Black Pepper

Ground black pepper is always handy at my house, so that’s what I use. You can replace it with fresh cracked pepper if you like.

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F while you prepare this easy flatbread recipe.
2. Just place the flatbread onto an oven-proof pan.
3. Combine butter, garlic, parsley, olive oil, and black pepper in a small pan and melt over low heat. Allow to cook over low heat for a few minutes or until you can smell the garlic.
4. Remove from the heat and brush over half of the butter oil mixture liberally over the flatbreads. Place into the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes or until lightly toasted.
5. Brush with more of the butter oil mixture once they come out of the oven, cut, and serve immediately.

Storing and Reheating Leftovers

Leftover garlic flatbread tends to be a little bit chewy. Reheat leftovers in a 350°F oven until crispy.

I prefer to only make what I think will be eaten. and store the garlic butter mixture for later use.

Leftover garlic sauce can be stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 months and in the freezer for up to 4 months and can be reheated in the microwave or on the stove. It can be used to make more flatbreads, added to pasta, or any other place you’d like to add garlic punch.

These garlic flatbreads are the perfect addition to any party! Not only are they delicious, but they’re also really easy to make. You can customize them however you like, and the leftover garlic butter keeps well so you can enjoy them long after the party. So go ahead and give this recipe a try – I promise you won’t regret it!
