Garnished with fresh parsley, itβs a showstopping dish thatβs as visually enticing as it is delicious. Ready in under an hour, this comforting and unique bread boat is perfect for brunch or dinner!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, sugar, salt, and yeast.
Pour the warm water and olive oil into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 220Β°C (430Β°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
After the dough has risen, divide it into two equal parts. Using lightly floured hands, form each part into an oval shape on the prepared baking sheet.
Shape each oval into a boat by pinching the ends and folding in the sides slightly to create a rim.
In a bowl, mix the mozzarella, feta, and ricotta cheeses together. Divide the mixture between the two dough boats, spreading evenly along the bottom and sides.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the edges are golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and make a small well in the center of each boat. Crack an egg into each well.
Return to the oven for another 8-10 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
Remove from the oven and place a tablespoon of butter on the edge of each khachapuri.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately. To eat, mix the melted butter and egg yolk into the cheese filling.
