Caramelized Onion and Gruyère Flatbread

Ingredients

• 120 g All-purpose flour
• 60 ml Warm water
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1 tbsp Unsalted butter
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 80 g Gruyère cheese
• 1 tsp Fresh thyme leaves(optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a bowl combine flour, warm water, olive oil, and salt; stir until a soft dough forms. Let rest for 5 minutes.

2. 2

   While the dough rests, thinly slice the onion. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, add onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden and sweet, about 8 minutes.

3. 3

   Preheat a non‑stick skillet or griddle over medium‑high heat. Roll the rested dough into a 20 cm (8‑inch) circle and brush the surface with a little olive oil.

4. 4

   Cook the flatbread for 2–3 minutes per side until lightly browned. Transfer to a baking sheet, spread the caramelized onions evenly, sprinkle grated Gruyère over the top, and add thyme if using.

5. 5

   Broil or place under a hot grill for 1–2 minutes until the cheese melts and bubbles. Slice and serve warm.
