Ingredients
- 1 yeast Fleischmann's RapidRise, envelope
- 2- 2 ½ cup flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons sugar
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cup water very warm
- 6 tablespoons neutral cooking oil divided, generic cooking oil
- ½ teaspoon thyme dried
- ¼ teaspoon oregano dried
- ¼ teaspoon parsley dried
- ½ cup artichoke heart chopped
- ⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes drained, packed in oil
- ⅓ cup kalamata olives sliced
- ¼ red onion thinly sliced
- ¼ cup feta cheese crumbled
- basil optional toppings, fresh basil, cracked black pepper, coarse sea salt
- black pepper
- sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Combine 1 cup flour, yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add water and 3 tablespoons oil and stir for about 1 minute or until well blended. Gradually add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky.
- Knead by hand on a floured surface, adding additional flour as necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. Let dough rest at this point for 10 minutes.
- Roll dough out to about 1/4 inch thickness and transfer to a lightly greased baking sheet. Brush with remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with dried herbs. Top with artichokes, sun dried tomatoes, onions, and olives.
- Bake on lowest rack for about 15 minutes until dough is cooked through. I like to BAKE for the first 12 minutes, then switch to BROIL for the last 2-3 minutes to get a nicely browned crust. (Just watch closely so it doesn't burn)
- Top with fresh basil, salt, pepper, and feta cheese. Serve immediately.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar to take this to the next level!
