Servings: 4 flatbreads
Calories: 457kcal
Ingredients
The Flatbread Dough
- 1½ cups all purpose flour (plus extra for dusting your work surface)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 3 ½ tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ cup room temperature milk
- ¼ cup warm water
The Filling
- ½ cup Fresh Basil
- 8 slices tomato
- 125 grams Fresh Mozzarella cut into 8 slices
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 slices prosciutto
Instructions
- Place the flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl and stir well to mix together.
- Mix the warm water milk and olive oil together. Make a well in the middle of the flour and add the liquid mixture. Using your hand, or a fork, mix everything together until it forms a soft, but not sticky dough. If needed, add a little more water to help the dough come together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for 2-3 minutes until the dough is a soft, smooth ball.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Pre-heat a griddle or a large cast iron skillet or frying pan on the stove over med- heat. Divide the dough in four and roll each piece into a thin round shape. Remember this is a rustic flatbread so they don’t need to be perfectly round!
- Cook the flatbread one at a time for 2-3 minutes per side, pricking any bubbles that form with a fork. The Flatbreads should be lightly golden, but still pliable.
- Place a slice of prosciutto and two tomato slices on one half of the flatbread. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Next, add 2 slices of the fresh mozzarella and top with some fresh basil. Fold the other half of the flatbread over to form a half-moon. Repeat with the remaining flatbreads
- Heat on the griddle or skillet for 1-2 minutes until the fillings are warm and the cheese is slightly melted. Serve while hot, with a simple green salad on the side.
