Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 packet (7 grams) Instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 200 milliliters Warm water
- 150 grams Mozzarella cheese, grated
- 100 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 unit Egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon Black sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, instant yeast, sugar, and salt together.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix the ingredients together until you form a sticky dough.
Lightly flour a clean surface with some additional gluten-free flour and knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle small amounts of flour as needed.
Place the dough back into the bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Divide the risen dough into four equal parts. Roll each portion into an oval shape about 1 cm thick. Carefully transfer the rolled dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together the mozzarella cheese and feta cheese. Evenly distribute the cheese mixture on the center of each dough oval, leaving a little space around the edges.
Fold the edges of the dough over slightly to create a border and pinch the ends together to form a boat shape.
Beat the egg yolk in a small dish and brush it lightly over the dough edges for a golden finish.
If using, sprinkle black sesame seeds over the brushed egg yolk for decoration.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious gluten-free cheese pide!
