Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella (or other) cheese
- 3 cups All-Purpose Baking Mix
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
- 1¼ teaspoons sea salt, divided
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1½ teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
- 1½ teaspoons dried oregano
- ½ cup black olives or kalamata olives, chopped or finely diced
- ¼ cup sundried tomatoes, finely sliced
- 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 2 eggs, separated
Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a baking sheet
- In a food chopper or food processor, pulse the cheese until reduced to small granules, about the size of couscous.
- In a medium bowl, combine the processed cheese, baking mix, xanthan gum, baking powder, 1 teaspoon of the salt, the onion powder, garlic powder, rosemary, oregano, olives, and tomatoes. Mix well. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and the vinegar and mix quickly. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on high speed, beat the egg whites until stiff. Blend in the egg yolks and 2 tablespoons of the remaining oil at low speed. Pour into the reserved dough mixture and mix together with a spoon.
- Place the dough into the baking sheet and, using your hands, shape into an 11" x 12" rectangle. Alternately, cover the dough with parchment paper and use a rolling pin to roll the dough ½ inch thick.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and, using the blunt handle of a wooden spoon or other small rounded instrument, make small depressions in the surface every inch or so. Brush the surface with the remaining 2 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with the remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt. Bake for an additional 8 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the flatbread into six 4" x 6" pieces.
