Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add it to the flour mixture along with olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Let the Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Flatbread Assembly

  1. 6

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  2. 7

    Prepare the Dough

    Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle or circle, about 1/4 inch thick.

  3. 8

    Add Toppings

    Transfer the rolled dough onto a baking sheet. Brush with olive oil, sprinkle the minced garlic evenly, and layer with mozzarella and feta cheese. Finish with chopped basil and black pepper.

  4. 9

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the flatbread is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  5. 10

    Cool and Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, cut into slices, and serve warm.
