Flatbread Pizza Recipe
Enjoy the fun of creating your own flatbread pizza with fresh ingredients and customizable toppings, making it a perfect meal for sharing with family and friends.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Active dry or instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- ¾ cup Warm water (between 100-110°F, 38-43°C)
- 2 cups All-purpose flour or bread flour
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil (for brushing)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder or minced garlic (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk the yeast, sugar, and warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add flour, olive oil, and salt (and optional garlic or seasoning) to the mixture. Mix on low speed until combined.
- Knead the dough for 6-8 minutes until it is soft and slightly sticky.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 475°F (246°C).
- Punch down the dough and shape it into two flatbreads, about ¼ inch thick.
- Transfer the flatbreads to a baking sheet and poke holes in the dough. Brush with olive oil.
- Add your favorite toppings to each flatbread.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until the crust is browned.
- Slice and serve warm. You can store leftovers in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Notes
- For best results, use warm (not hot) water to activate the yeast.
- Using bread flour can yield a chewier crust.
- Poking holes before adding toppings prevents puffing.
- Slice while warm for easier handling.
