Ingredients

Units Scale

Easy Pizza Crust:

  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp olive oil (or as little as 1 tbsp)
  • 3-3 1/2 cups bread flour (3 cups keeps the dough moist)

Three cheeses (for all variations):

  • 4 oz Classic semi-hard cheese, grated
  • 4 oz Weissbier-style cheese, grated
  • 2 oz Hirten-style aged hard cheese, finely grated

Roasted Fig Flatbread:

  • 1 purple onion, sliced into rings and caramelized
  • 6-8 fresh figs, sliced
  • 1 cup arugula, rinsed and patted dry
  • Olive oil or honey, for drizzling (optional)

BBQ Chicken Flatbread:

  • 1 cup cooked chicken, roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup barbecue sauce (your preferred style)
  • 1 purple onion, sliced into rings and caramelized
  • 1 cup arugula, rinsed and patted dry
  • Olive oil or honey, for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

Easy Pizza Crust:

  1. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and let rest for 5 minutes, until bubbling.
  2. Stir in the salt, sugar, and olive oil.
  3. Gradually add the flour until the dough is pliable and easy to work with.
  4. Knead for 5–10 minutes until smooth.
  5. Place the dough ball in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise 1–2 hours until doubled in size and an indentation from your finger holds its shape.
  6. Punch down the dough and divide into three equal balls.
  7. Working with one ball at a time, pat into a disc and stretch outward. Use a rolling pin if needed to form an 8–12-inch round or oblong flatbread.
  8. Place on a floured pizza peel or directly on the baking pan.

Roasted Fig Flatbread:

  1. Preheat the oven (or barbecue with a pizza stone) to its highest setting, at least 500°F (260°C).
  2. Generously scatter the grated Classic and Weissbier-style cheeses over the dough. Arrange the sliced figs and caramelized onion rings over the cheese.
  3. Finely grate the aged hard cheese over the top.
  4. Drizzle the crust with olive oil if desired.
  5. Bake on a preheated pizza stone or perforated pan for 7–10 minutes, until the crust is browned and the cheese is bubbling.
  6. Remove from the oven, top with fresh arugula, and drizzle with honey if desired. Serve immediately.

BBQ Chicken Flatbread:

  1. Preheat the oven (or barbecue with a pizza stone) to its highest setting, at least 500°F (260°C).
  2. Generously scatter the grated Classic and Weissbier-style cheeses over the dough. Toss the chopped chicken with the barbecue sauce and spread evenly over the cheese. Arrange the caramelized onion rings on top.
  3. Finely grate the aged hard cheese over the top.
  4. Drizzle the crust with olive oil if desired.
  5. Bake on a preheated pizza stone or perforated pan for 7–10 minutes, until the crust is browned and the cheese is bubbling.
  6. Remove from the oven, top with fresh arugula, and drizzle with honey if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

The dough divides into three portions — make all three variations at once, or freeze extra dough balls after the first rise. Leftover grilled or rotisserie chicken works perfectly for the BBQ variation. Caramelize the onion rings low and slow in a little butter for 20–25 minutes before topping.
