Lavash - Alton Brown
- Ready In:
- 1hr 15mins
- Ingredients:
- 7
- Serves:
-
10-12
ingredients
- 1 teaspoon table salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 14 1⁄2 ounces all-purpose flour (about 2 1/2 cups)
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2⁄3 cup water
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
directions
- Whisk together salt, sugar, and flour.
- In another bowl, beat egg, 2 tbsp melted butter and water.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients all at once. Stir together with a clean hand. Once dough is fully combined, turn out onto a floured board and knead until smooth and glossy. Cut dough into thirds. Cover with a towel and let rest 30 minutes.
- Brush the UNDERSIDE of a half-sheet baking pan liberally with butter. Press one dough ball into the center of the pan and roll out until it covers about 2/3 of the pan. Carefully stretch dough all the way around the pan, pulling it over the edge and pressing into place.
- Bake on the middle rack of a preheated 375°F oven for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. If baking more than one sheet at a time, rotate top-to-bottom and front-to-back halfway through. If baking one sheet at a time, be sure sheet pan is fully cool before prepping the next dough ball. Cool completely on a rack. Break into shapes and serve.

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013.
After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
