Ingredients
NO-RISE FLATBREAD 2½ cups all-purpose flour 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt ¾ cup warm water 3 tbsp olive oil
POMEGRANATE POTATO TOPPING 1½ lbs small Yukon Gold potatoes, sliced ⅛-inch thin (use mandoline if available) 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced 4 cloves garlic, minced 3 tbsp pomegranate molasses 2 tbsp honey ¼ cup olive oil 1 tsp smoked paprika ½ tsp ground cumin ½ tsp kosher salt ¼ tsp black pepper ¼ cup fresh pomegranate seeds ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese or feta 2 tbsp fresh mint leaves, torn Flaky sea salt for finishing
Method
FLATBREAD: Mix the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add warm water and olive oil, stirring until a shaggy dough forms. Knead briefly: Turn onto lightly floured surface and knead just until smooth, about 3-4 minutes. Cover and let rest 20 minutes.
TOPPING: Caramelize onions: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Prep potatoes: Meanwhile, slice potatoes paper-thin using mandoline or sharp knife. Pat dry with paper towels. Make pomegranate glaze: Whisk together pomegranate molasses, honey, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
ASSEMBLE AND BAKE: Preheat oven to 475°F. Place two baking sheets in oven to heat. Roll flatbreads: Divide dough into 6 portions. Roll each very thin (about 8-9 inches diameter) on floured surface. Top flatbreads: Brush each with remaining olive oil. Spread caramelized onions evenly, then arrange potato slices in overlapping pattern. Brush generously with pomegranate glaze. Bake: Carefully transfer to hot baking sheets (work in batches if needed). Bake 12-15 minutes until edges are golden and potatoes are tender and slightly crispy. Finish: Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with goat cheese, pomegranate seeds, torn mint, and flaky sea salt.
