Hey Guys, I just found a new item. Flatout Flatbread. It's in my grocers deli area. My wife and daughter love flatbread pizza from Chili's and asked me to make some. Tried some frozen dough, homemade dough, and the one in a roll in the canned biscuit area. None were really easy nor as good as they wanted. Then I found this flatout flatbread. Comes 6 to a bag for about $3. They are somewhere near 10 x 5 and make a wonderful flatbread pizza. I did one for them last night with some of the pizza sauce that comes in the individual bags, mozzarella, onion, frozen cooked mushrooms, and sliced tomato with some dried basil. It was amazingly good. I am going to try one with my own sauce and fresh basil this weekend.
 
I think they may also be known as Naan. www.stonefire.com
Naan was one of the flat breads I was thinking of. But, naan is made with white flour and we don't do white flour.

I think I will try it on Azim bread. It's about the only whole grain, flat, bread that I can get at the health food store that isn't gluten free. :ermm: Stirling really hates gluten free stuff.

I'm sure I've seen a whole grain version at the store. I can't check thier website here at work. For some reason our filter thinks it's a porn site.:LOL:

I looked at GA's link and they do have whole grain flatbreads.

Yeah, but that's a US brand. I'll give the Azim bread a try. I have some in the freezer.

You can buy whole grain naan but would whole wheat pitta bread do the trick?

Around here if you want an whole grain Indian flat bread, it's roti or chapati. Whole grain pita would work, but it's hard to find. That's why I get the Azim bread. I don't usually see roti or chapati for sale. I order it in Indian restos. I guess I should look roti or chapati next time I'm in an Indian grocery store. I have made chapati, but it doesn't always puff up and I'm lazy.
 
Yikes! I just bought some whole grain pita at the health food store. It's not even organic. It was $5.29 for five pitas. It weighs 225 grams (just under half a pound). The company that made the whole grain pita we used to buy at Costco, but Costco doesn't carry it any more. :(
 
Thanks for the great idea. I made pizza using French bread, but storing the rest of the loaf takes up a lot of room. I'll be looking for this.

Stonefire makes a whole grain naan, and it should be available at Costco in Montreal, according to their website:

Naan

I've been using their products to make pizza for a while now. They're a little expensive, in my opinion, but delicious. A lot of times I don't even use tomato sauce. One of our favorites is to simply brush olive oil and garlic on it, then top with a few fresh spinach leaves, balsamic caramelized onions, goat cheese, and walnuts. Bake in a hot oven just long enough to wilt the spinach leaves. It might sound a little odd, but it's awesome.

Note that Stonefire also makes pizza crusts. However, they are white flour. They also don't have a lot of flavor. I like the naan much better.

I'll check the next time I'm at Costco. I've put it on the list. I would be surprised if I missed it. It's not made from white whole wheat, is it?

I just checked the site. Yes, they sell stuff at the Montreal Costco. That's about 30 km away. I shop at the Pointe-Claire Costco which is about 2.5 km from home. Doesn't seem worth the effort to drive to the Montreal Costco, since they say they don't necessarily carry their entire line at all locations. Thanks for looking this up for me.
 
GA Home Cook, thanks for the reminder! I remember getting Flatout awhile back, but didn't think of it for pizza. Now to remember where I found it....
 
I made some pizza on pita last night and it was really good. Thanks for pointing out that flat breads make good pizza.
 
I stopped at the "dead bread" store today and picked up a package of flat bread, so tonight I will give this a whirl, my only question is about how long to you bake them. When I make a conventional pizza from scratch I get the oven as hot as I can and it takes 18 to 20 minutes. With these everything is cooked and they are significantly smaller so what do you think?

Due to newly wonky thermostat on our oven, I can't tell you what temperature we used. The oven was set to 400°F. Ten minutes made them look and taste like pizza. I would check sooner.
