Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (plus extra for the skillet)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, chopped fresh rosemary, sea salt, and baking powder thoroughly to distribute all ingredients evenly.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then stir the mixture until a cohesive dough forms. It should be slightly sticky but manageable.
- Prepare the Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil, just enough to lightly coat the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking and help form a crispy crust.
- Shape Dough: On a lightly floured surface, shape the dough into a round loaf that will fit comfortably in the skillet.
- Cook the Bread – First Side: Place the dough into the heated skillet and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the bottom turns golden brown and develops a nice crust.
- Cook the Bread – Second Side: Carefully flip the bread with a spatula and cook the other side for another 5 to 7 minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the skillet bread from heat and allow it to cool slightly before slicing to let the crumb set perfectly. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Using fresh rosemary enhances the flavor significantly over dried.
- Make sure the skillet is properly preheated to ensure a crispy crust.
- You can add additional toppings like garlic or seeds for extra flavor and texture.
- This recipe works best with a non-stick or cast-iron skillet.
- Let the bread cool slightly before slicing to avoid a gummy texture inside.
