Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) warm water
  • 2 1/4 tsp (7g) active dry yeast
  • 1 tsp (6g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp (6g) fine sea salt
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
  2. Stir in the olive oil, then gradually add the all-purpose flour and fine sea salt.
  3. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms, then knead by hand for 3-5 minutes until the surface is smooth and slightly tacky.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  5. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a tight ball.
  6. Allow the dough balls to rest for 10 minutes to prevent shrinking during rolling.
  7. On a floured surface, roll each ball into a 1/4-inch thick rustic oval.
  8. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat without adding oil.
  9. Lay the dough in the hot skillet and cook for 2 minutes per side until charred bubbles form.
