Ingredients:
- 1 cup warm water.
- 2 teaspoons yeast
- 2.5 cups flour (I used King Arthur Italian Style Flour this time, all purpose would work as well)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup feta cheese, broken into small chunks
- 1 cup fresh baby spinach, cut into small pieces
- Pepper, oregano, and garlic to taste
Instructions:
- Pre-heat oven to 450 placing pizza stone in oven first
- In a stand mixer bowl, activate the yeast in the warm water with 1 cup of flour stirred in
- Cover the bowl and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Place rest of ingredients +"sponge" in the bowl of mixer, beat 10 minutes to make
soft dough. - If needed, add additional flour by tablespoon so you can roll it out later. (Or scoop it out of bowl now.)
- Add additional 1/2 tablespoon of oil to grease bowl, flip dough on oil.
- Cover and let rise for about an hour to double.
- Divide dough into 4 equal pieces on a well-floured work surface.
- Roll out each piece into a thin flat bread maybe 12" by 5 inches on a floured piece of parchment paper.
- Slide parchment paper and dough onto the hot pizza stone - pre-bake each flat bread about 3 minutes.
- Remove from oven, top lightly with your choice of pizza toppings.
- Return to oven, bake for 5 to 7 minutes until cheese has melted.
Carole's Notes:
Doug and I each ate 2/3 of a flatbread. I pre-baked the other two for another time.You could also bake these at 550 - they will cook faster - but you should flour the flat breads enough you can slide onto pizza stone without the parchment paper.
When I make naan out of these, I replace 1/3 cup of water with Greek yogurt. I also mix in 2 teaspoons onion flakes. If you are in a rush, use 1 tablespoon of yeast, and let them rise only 10 minutes.
The flatbread recipe is lightly adapted from http://arabicbites.blogspot.com/2007/12/10-minutes-dough-or-as-i-call-it-all.html
