  • Total Time: 3 hours 30 minutes
  • Yield: 2 flatbreads 1x

Description

A tangy and fragrant flatbread combining pumpkin puree and sourdough starter for a cozy autumn bake.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup active sourdough starter
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 12 teaspoons chopped fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, or sage)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons seeds (pumpkin, sesame, or sunflower)

  • Instructions

    1. Whisk together pumpkin puree, sourdough starter, warm water, olive oil, and minced garlic until smooth

    2. Gradually stir in flour, salt, and herbs until a slightly sticky dough forms

    3. Cover and rest the dough for 30 minutes to hydrate the flour

    4. Knead gently for 5–7 minutes or perform two stretch-and-folds spaced 20 minutes apart

    5. Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover, and ferment at room temperature for 2–3 hours until puffy

    6. Turn dough onto a floured surface and divide into two portions, shape into balls, and rest for 15–20 minutes

    7. Flatten each ball into a 1/4-inch-thick round using hands or a rolling pin

    8. Optionally proof shaped rounds for 30 minutes for a softer texture

    9. Preheat oven to 425°F, brush flatbreads with oil, add seeds or herbs, and bake on a sheet or stone for 12–15 minutes

    10. Serve warm with dips, soups, or salads for a cozy fall meal
