FLATBREAD (SWEDISH) 
Flatbread is a blank canvas meant to be embellished with a limitless variety of toppings; seeds, nuts, herbs, grains and more.

We love sesame seeds and rosemary. Sometimes we use sour cream instead of the yogurt, or even buttermilk, then top with dill weed and caraway seeds.

Another wonderful combination is a crumbled shredded wheat topping and a tablespoon of onion soup mixed into the batter. This is the best cracker for spreading with a Lox and Cream Cheese spread!

Process oatmeal briefly in a food processor and sprinkle over the surface with a spritz of olive oil and Italian herbs; add Parmesan cheese to the batter.

We'd love to hear your ideas, too!

1 1/4 cups white flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons sugar (optional)
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup butter or soft shortening
1/4 cup cream or Half and Half
1/4 cup plain yogurt

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together white flour, salt, baking soda and sugar until well combined. In a mixing cup with a pouring spout, combine cream and yogurt.

Add whole wheat flour and cut in butter (or soft shortening) using a large fork or pastry cutter as you would when making a pie crust. Gradually stir in cream and yogurt mixture.

Divide dough into 6 or 8 parts. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest 15 minutes.

Roll out very thinly on a lightly floured work surface. If using seeds or herbs, sprinkle evenly over surface. Some seeds (such as sesame seeds and poppy seeds) can be pressed in.

Perforate with a fork to keep flatbread from puffing up when baking.

Bake in preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Store in an airtight container.
