Alouette Prosciutto Flatbread
This Alouette cheese and prosciutto flatbread perfectly ties together your favorite charcuterie night flavors into a unique pizza recipe.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 250 grams pizza dough*
- ¼ cup Alouette garlic & herbs spreadable cheese
- ⅛ lb prosciutto chopped
- Pinch sea salt for finishing
Homemade Bruschetta
- 1 small vine tomato quartered
- ¼ small yellow onion peeled
- ½ tsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- Sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
- Lightly dust a large baking sheet or pizza pan with flour, then dust your hands with flour before handling the pizza dough. Gently stretch the dough into a roughly 12- to 14-inch circle or oval, working around the edges and rotating the dough as you go.* Use more flour as needed to prevent sticking, and work slowly so you don't tear the dough - patience is key!
- Microwave the garlic & herbs spreadable cheese for about 10-15 seconds, just enough to make it spread easier without tearing the dough. Gently spread the cheese on the dough in a thin layer, leaving at least a half-inch of crust.
- Top the pizza with chopped prosciutto.
- Prepare the Homemade Bruschetta: add all ingredients to a food processor, then pulse until finely chopped. Spoon bruschetta onto the pizza, then sprinkle just a pinch of sea salt across the pizza before baking.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until crust is golden-brown. Slice and serve hot!
Notes
Pizza dough: We made this recipe for Classic Pizza Dough by Ooni in our trusty stand mixer - it's the best dough for flatbreads! Stretch one of the 250-gram dough balls out into a roughly 12-inch pizza for the perfect thin and crispy base. If you want to make this dough recipe, note that it’ll take about 3-4 hours. If you’re using store-bought pizza dough, make sure to weigh out about 250 grams for this recipe (250g = just over a half-pound of dough).
Stretching and shaping pizza dough: The beauty of flatbread pizzas (and homemade pizza in general) is they often aren't perfect circles. Stretch the dough into whatever shape you like, as long as it's an even thickness by the time you're done!
Baking tips: In general, bake pizza in the middle of your oven (move your oven racks if needed) to ensure even cooking. If you are baking two pizzas at once on separate racks, space the racks evenly in the oven and just switch the pizzas about halfway through.
