Ingredients
- ⅔ cup warm water 115 degrees
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil plus more for greasing
- 1 ¼ cups flour plus more for dusting
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 ½ cups shredded muenster cheese
- 1 ¼ cup crumbled Feta cheese
- 2 eggs optional OR 2 egg yolks (I prefer just the yolk)
- 4 tbsp. unsalted butter cubed
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add water, sugar and yeast.
- Let bloom until foamy and fragrant, about 10 minutes.
- Add flour, olive oil, and salt to bowl and stir with wooden spoon until a soft, springy dough forms.
- Transfer dough to well greased bowl and let rise in a warm area for 1 hour.
- Preheat pizza stone in oven at 500 degrees (dont add stone to a hot oven, let it come to temperature in the oven so it doesn't explode.)
- Generously flour a counter surface.
- Punch down dough, and divide into two round balls.
- Roll out one ball onto floured surface into a large disc, about 1/4" thick.
- Add 1/4 cheese mixture to the center of the dough.
- Roll the sides to form a boat shape around the dough.
- Add another 1/4 cheese to the middle and place into oven.
- Bake 30 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and crust is a golden brown.
- Top with fresh egg and pats of butter when removing from oven.
- Repeat with second disc for second Khachapuri.
- Serve and enjoy!
