Garlic Butter Flatbread

Garlic Butter Flatbread

2 cups warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 packages yeast (4-½ teaspoons total)
4 cups flour
1/4 stick of butter
One clove of garlic, crushed (or sprinkle on garlic powder if you want less of a garlic flavor)

Pour warm water, sugar, salt, and yeast into a mixing bowl. Let yeast sit for a few minutes. Add the flour and stir everything together until flour is all mixed in. Let dough rise until doubled in size, for another 30 min.-1 hour or so.

Pat mixture out onto greased jellyroll pan.

Melt 1/4 stick of butter with a crushed clove of garlic. Pour the butter mixture all over the bread dough. If you have time, let it rise another 30 min. to an hour (if not, it will still be fine).

Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until butter is mostly absorbed and the bread is golden.

Cut into pieces and serve. It’s especially good with spaghetti. My family also likes to spread strawberry jam on it. (Sounds strange, but it’s good!)
