Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 200 grams
• Warm water - 120 milliliters
• Olive oil - 30 milliliters (plus extra for drizzling)
• Instant yeast - 5 grams
• Salt - 5 grams
• Garlic powder - 2 grams
• Cherry tomatoes - 100 grams, halved
• Red onion - 50 grams, thinly sliced
• Bell pepper - 50 grams, thinly sliced
• Kalamata olives - 30 grams, pitted and halved
• Fresh oregano - 5 grams, chopped
• Fresh basil - 5 grams, chopped

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the warm water and instant yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
2. In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, salt, and garlic powder. Create a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil.
3. Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 15 minutes.
5. Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F).
6. Once the dough has risen, divide it into two equal portions and roll each portion into a flat circle about 1/4 inch thick.
7. Transfer the flatbreads to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle lightly with olive oil.
8. Top each flatbread with cherry tomatoes, red onion, bell pepper, and Kalamata olives. Sprinkle with fresh oregano and basil.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy.
10. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm, drizzled with extra olive oil if desired.
