Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.75 cups whole milk
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the butter into small pieces and work it into the flour mixture using your fingertips or a pastry cutter until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gradually add the milk, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the mixture forms a soft dough.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for about 1-2 minutes, just until the dough comes together. Do not over-knead.

Step 6

Roll the dough out into a rectangular shape, approximately 1/4 inch thick. Carefully transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, and basil. Brush this mixture evenly over the surface of the dough.

Step 8

Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.

Step 9

Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, score the dough into rectangular or square pieces, making it easier to break apart once baked.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the flatbread is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as is, or alongside a marinara sauce for dipping.
