Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 g All-purpose flour
- 125 ml Water
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 200 g Sour cream (or crème fraîche)
- 100 g Soft goat cheese
- 2 Onions
- 1 tbsp Olive oil (for onions)
- 0.25 tsp Salt (for onions)
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp Fresh chives
- 1 tbsp Fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 230°C (450°F) and place a baking stone or an inverted baking sheet inside to heat up.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the water and olive oil. Mix until a rough dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Form into a ball and let rest for 10 minutes.
While the dough is resting, prepare the onions by slicing them thinly.
In a pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and add the sliced onions, cooking until caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Season with salt and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the sour cream with the crumbled goat cheese, and season with slightly more salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Roll out the rested dough into a thin oval or rectangular shape, approximately 10x14 inches.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a piece of parchment paper.
Spread the sour cream and cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Distribute the caramelized onions over the top.
Carefully transfer the parchment with the Flammkuchen onto the preheated baking stone or baking sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is crispy and golden brown.
Once baked, remove from the oven and top with fresh chives and thyme leaves.
Cut into pieces and serve immediately.
