Sweet Potato Hummus & Yogurt Flatbread
Amy
This Sweet Potato Hummus & Yogurt Flatbread is a vibrant blend of creamy, smoky, and tangy flavors that’s as nourishing as it is delicious. With just 30 minutes of prep and cooking, it’s a quick yet impressive dish that’s perfect for sharing or savoring solo.
For the Yogurt Flatbreads:
- ½ cup spelt flour, plus extra for kneading/rolling
- ½ cup yogurt
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Extra-virgin olive oil or butter for the pan
For the Sweet Potato Hummus:
- ½ medium sweet potato, baked until mushy
- 1 can chickpeas (1.5 cups)
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- ½ tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 clove garlic
- ½ teaspoon sea salt, more to taste
- 1 teaspoon paprika, plus more for garnish
- ½ teaspoon minced rosemary
- Juice of ½ small lemon or ¼ large lemon
- Fresh black pepper
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne (optional)
Make the yogurt flatbreads: Combine the flour, yogurt, baking powder, and salt. Mix together with your hands to form a ball of dough. Add more flour if you need to, just enough so it's not too sticky. Knead for about a minute until the dough is smooth. Put in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to a few days. Divide into 4 balls and roll them into flat disks with a rolling pin. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the oil or butter. Place the flatbreads in the pan and cook for a minute or two on each side like you would cook a pancake. Flip when you start to see bubbles, and remove when they’re at your desired level of browning or char. Serve immediately; they’re best right off the skillet. If you want to make extra for later, I would keep the raw dough balls in the fridge and cook as needed instead of making them all at once and storing them.
Make the sweet potato hummus: Process the sweet potato, chickpeas, tahini, maple syrup, garlic, salt, paprika, rosemary, lemon juice, pepper, and cayenne, if using, in a food processor until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a dusting of paprika. Serve with the yogurt flatbreads.
