Ingredients
- 120 ml White wine
- 100 ml Olive oil
- 1.5 cups Flour (Follow recipe before you add flour)
- 1/2 cup Pitted black olives
- 1 Tbsp Herbs de Provence (See notes for alternatives)
- 1/2 Tsp Salt

- 3 Cloves Garlic roughly chopped
Caramelised onions
- 2 Tsp Oil
- 4/5 Large Pink or Red Onions
- 1 Tsp Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/4 Tsp Salt
Instructions
- Get a large mixing bowl. Add your wine, oil and herbs and mix.
- This next step is important. Add the baking powder and salt to your flour and using a sieve and a wooden spoon, gradually sift about a cup of flour into your liquid mix.
- Continue to sift your flour until you have a sticky dough. You may use up to two cups.
- Grease a baking sheet and roughly roll out your dough onto the sheet.
When this is done pop it into the fridge for about 20 minutes. - While your dough is chilling, you can pop on your oven to get it heated up (200 C).
Chop up all of your onions. - Then heat up about 2 tsp of oil in a pan and add your chopped onions.
To caramelise the onions, brown them a little in the pan with a pinch of salt. As the onions begin to brown add in your apple cider vinegar and about a teaspoon of sugar. Continue to cook until onions are browned and sweet.
Then put to one side. - Get your chilled flatbread from the fridge and aerate using a fork.
Pop into your oven for ten minutes (don’t add onions at this stage). - After ten minutes remove from the oven and now cover with the caramelised onions. Put back into the oven for another ten minutes.
- Once this ten minutes is up, remove, add your black olives and garlic and return to the oven for 5 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and your delicious and easy flat onion bread is ready to be enjoyed.
