Flat Bread

This bread is comfort food at its finest.  I can start this and have it out of the oven in 15 minutes, which is pretty great if you ask me.  Now just because it is fast, doesn't mean this is some mediocre recipe.  It is so good!  I am not one to sacrifice taste for time, and this bread is fantastic and who doesn't love hot bread strait from the oven?  Baking it at 500 degrees really does some pretty magical things to both the taste and time.

2 1/4 teaspoons yeast
1 cup warm water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil
2-3 cups flour

1. Preheat oven to 500 degrees.

2. Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  Start with 2 cups of flour and knead ingredients together.  I usually start out with a spoon and end up using my hands.  Add more flour until it the dough isn't too sticky.  You should be able to handle the dough without it sticking to your hands too much.

3. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray and roll out the dough directly on the cookie sheet.  Bake for 6-8 minutes, until slightly brown on top.

4. Remove from oven and rub with a little butter, sprinkle on a little garlic salt, and cut into squares.
