Dive into nutrient-rich Exotic Spiced Sweet Potato Flatbread with pumpkin seeds. Perfect for clean eating and a flavorful homemade bread experience!
Ingredients
- • medium sweet potatoes: 2 (about 400g), peeled and cubed
- • whole wheat flour: 2 cups
- • pumpkin seeds: 1/2 cup
- • water: 1/2 cup
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • ground cumin: 1 teaspoon
- • ground coriander: 1 teaspoon
- • smoked paprika: 1/2 teaspoon
- • salt: 1 teaspoon
- • baking powder: 1 teaspoon
- • fresh cilantro: 1/4 cup, chopped
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Start by boiling the cubed sweet potatoes in a pot of water until tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and mash them until smooth, allowing them to cool slightly.
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, whole wheat flour, pumpkin seeds, water, olive oil, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, salt, and baking powder. Mix until a dough forms, then fold in the chopped cilantro.
- 3 Divide the dough into six equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a flat round, about 1/4 inch thick.
- 4 Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then flip each flatbread and bake for another 10 minutes until golden brown and firm to the touch.
- 5 Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Serving Suggestions
- • This exotic flatbread pairs beautifully with a light cucumber and mint yogurt dip, offering a refreshing contrast to the warm spices. For a heartier meal, consider serving it alongside a vibrant lentil and avocado salad, drizzled with lemon vinaigrette. Quench your thirst with a chilled herbal iced tea, such as hibiscus or peppermint, to complement the flavors of the flatbread. For an added twist, top the flatbread with a dollop of hummus or smashed avocado for an extra layer of creamy indulgence. Pairing it with a protein-rich side, like grilled chicken or chickpea stew, can transform this flatbread into a satisfying main course. Enjoy it as a unique accompaniment to soups or stews for a comforting and nutritious meal.
Storage Tips
To maintain the freshness and nutritional value of your flatbreads, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, wrap them individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 3 months, and reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes when ready to enjoy.
