Instructions
- Preheat oven to 500°F. Place pizza stone on lowest rack in oven during preheating.
- Combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, cake flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add water and mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Add additional flour, if needed, to form a soft dough.
- Knead** on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. Divide dough into 8-equal size portions. Cover dough while working with individual portions. (If not using Pizza Yeast, allow dough to rest for 10 minutes.)
- Roll one portion of dough on floured surface into a 12 x 4-inch rectangle. The dough should be extremely thin at this point.
- Place flat bread on a well-floured or cornmeal-dusted pizza peel, flat baking sheet or the back side of a jelly roll pan. Parchment paper (not waxed paper) also works. Make sure that the flat bread moves freely. Add desired toppings to the flat bread.
- To bake, slide the flat bread off the pizza peel or baking sheet onto the preheated stone that is still in the oven. Use a long-handled spatula to help transfer the bread if needed. Bake 3 to 5 minutes or until flat bread is lightly browned.
- When the flat bread is done, remove it from the oven with a pizza peel. You can also use a spatula or tongs to gently transfer the flat bread to a cutting board, pizza pan or cookie sheet for serving.
- Repeat with remaining dough portions. Any unused dough can be stored in the freezer until later use; wrap each portion individually in plastic wrap. Store up to 2 weeks in freezer. Thaw at room temperature about 20 minutes or in refrigerator about 1 hour.
- Allow the oven to cool before removing the pizza stone and follow the manufacturers directions for cleaning.
