Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 45 minutes

For 2 loaves

Two flatbreads will be baked at the same time. Therefore, prepare half of the ingredients in two bowls at the same time. Put the flours in the bowl, make a well in the center, crumble in the yeast, and mix with 100 ml of lukewarm water and the sugar. Let it rest for 10 minutes. Knead the pre-dough with the flour, oil, yogurt, and finally salt (I knead by hand), carefully adding the mineral water until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let rise for 1 hour. Lightly dust the dough with flour, knead again vigorously, form into a ball, and cover and let rise for another 20 minutes. Line two baking sheets with baking paper and lightly dust with flour. Slide a dough ball onto each baking sheet (upside down), very carefully flatten it so that the flatbread almost fills the entire baking sheet. Vigorously mix the olive oil and yogurt, brush the surface with it, and sprinkle the seeds on top. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 240°C (top and bottom heat) ahead of time, and place a shallow bowl of water inside. Place both baking sheets in the oven (levels according to the oven manufacturer’s instructions), steam vigorously with a watering can, reduce the temperature to 220°C (fan oven), bake for 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 160°C (fan oven) and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes. On my oven, the top loaf is done within the specified time. I then remove it and let the second one bake for another 5 to 10 minutes.
