Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Active sourdough starter
- 180 grams All-purpose flour
- 50 grams Whole wheat flour
- 120 milliliters Warm water
- 5 grams Salt
- 15 milliliters Olive oil
- 20 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 2 medium Apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 30 grams Brown sugar
- 10 grams Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, and warm water. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let the dough rest for 30 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate.
Sprinkle the salt over the dough and drizzle the olive oil on top. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5–7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Return the dough to the bowl, cover it with the damp towel, and let it ferment at room temperature for 2 hours, performing two sets of stretch-and-folds every 30 minutes.
While the dough ferments, prepare the cinnamon apples. Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. In a skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the apple slices, brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften and caramelize slightly. Remove from heat and let cool.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F) and place a baking sheet or pizza stone inside to heat up.
Once the dough has completed its fermentation, transfer it to a floured surface and gently stretch it into a flat oval or rectangle shape, about 1 cm thick.
Carefully remove the hot baking sheet or pizza stone from the oven, then transfer the dough onto it. Sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and granulated sugar evenly over the dough.
Spread the cooked apple mixture over the top of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes, or until the flatbread is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar for a touch of sweetness. Serve warm or at room temperature.
