Make your own mouthwatering flatbread pizza at home with this simple recipe. Enjoy the perfect combination of crispy crust, pizza sauce, and gooey cheese.
To make the dough, start by whisking together the yeast, sugar, oil, and warm water in a stand mixer bowl. Let the mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy. Then, add the flour and salt, and mix until a shaggy dough forms. Knead the dough using a hook attachment for 8 minutes.
Once the dough is kneaded, place it in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes or until it has doubled in size.
After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 2 equal portions. Roll each portion into an oval shape and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Now, it's time to assemble the flatbread. Spread your favorite pizza sauce over the dough, sprinkle a generous amount of 3 kinds of shredded cheeses, add sliced tomatoes, and scatter some fresh basil leaves on top. Finally, give it a sprinkle of Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and bake the flatbread on a baking sheet for about 13-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Once it's done, take it out of the oven, garnish with fresh basil leaves, slice it up, and enjoy your delicious homemade flatbread!
Notes
Go for the good stuff - fresh mozzarella, tasty tomato sauce, and some fragrant fresh herbs will really make a difference.
When topping your flatbread, just remember not to go overboard. Too many toppings can make it soggy, so let's keep it balanced and delicious!
