• Try different seed combinations in the topping to customize the flavor.

Flatbread Dough

• 2 Cups Prepared Mashed Potatoes (about 2 Medium Russet Potatoes)
• 1/4 Cup Melted Butter
• 1 Egg
• 1 Cup Rice Flour
• 1/4 Cup Corn Starch or Tapioca or Potato Starch
• 2 Tsp Baking Powder

• 2 Tsp Sesame Seeds
• 2 Tsp Dried Garlic or 1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder
• 2 Tsp Dried Onion
• 1 Tsp Dried Basil
• 1/2 Tsp Salt

Instructions

1. Prepare Mashed Potatoes: Cook and mash the potatoes, then set them aside to cool. Alternatively, use 2 cups of already prepared mashed potatoes.
2. Make the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the cooled mashed potatoes, melted butter, and egg. Stir until smooth. Gradually add rice flour, corn starch, salt, and baking powder, mixing until a smooth dough forms. Wrap the dough ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
3. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) to ensure proper baking temperature.
4. Prepare Everything Topping: In a small bowl, mix poppy seeds, sesame seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, dried basil, and salt until well combined.

6. Apply Topping and Bake: Brush the tops of each flatbread with melted butter, then sprinkle generously with the everything topping mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the flatbreads are golden and cooked through.
7. Finish and Serve: Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter once more to add moisture and shine. Serve warm or at room temperature.
