Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 packet active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
- 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Sea salt for sprinkling
Feel free to substitute fresh rosemary with dried if that’s what you have on hand, though fresh will give a more vibrant flavor. Similarly, if you’re out of garlic, a pinch of garlic powder can work in a pinch.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a muffin tin with olive oil.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in the warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil.
- Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, gently deflate the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them in the muffin tin.
- Press each dough ball gently to flatten slightly. Top each with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of chopped rosemary, minced garlic, and a pinch of sea salt.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let them cool slightly before serving.
It might remind you of a Sunday morning spent watching my grandmother roll out her tortillas. There’s a meditative quality to kneading and shaping dough that connects you with generations of cooks before you.
