Ingredients
Scale
240 grams all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
0.5 teaspoon salt
177 milliliters warm water
2 tablespoons olive oil
120 grams shredded mozzarella
113 grams cream cheese, softened
25 grams grated Parmesan
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs
0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in warm water and olive oil until a shaggy dough forms. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and rest 15 minutes to relax the gluten.
In a bowl, combine mozzarella, cream cheese, Parmesan, garlic, herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper. This should be cohesive and creamy enough to scoop. If too stiff, soften with a teaspoon of cream or splash of milk.
Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Roll each into a 6–7 inch circle. Place a generous tablespoon of filling in the center. Bring the edges up and over to close, pinching to seal completely. Gently flatten into a disc so it cooks evenly.
Heat a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and brush with a little oil. Cook stuffed rounds about 3–4 minutes per side, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted. If needed, cover for 1–2 minutes to help the filling heat through.
Let the flatbreads rest 3–5 minutes. They’ll be crisp on the outside with a molten, cheesy center—perfect for dipping or slicing into wedges.
Notes
