Instructions
Stir In The Sugar
In a small bowl, crumble the fresh yeast into the lukewarm water and stir in the sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy. If using dried yeast, follow the same step.
Combine The Flour And Salt
In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture. Begin to mix, gradually incorporating the flour from the sides. Add the 3 tablespoons of melted butter and knead everything together for about 5-7 minutes until you have a smooth, elastic dough that doesn't stick to the bowl.
Cover The Bowl With A Clean Kitchen Towel
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and place it in a warm, draft-free spot for about 30-45 minutes, or until the dough has doubled in size.
Preheat Your Oven To 350
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Gently punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a floured surface. You can either roll it out to fit a large baking sheet or divide it into smaller portions to make individual flatbreads. Place the shaped dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Mix The 3 Tablespoons Of Melted Butter
In a small bowl, mix the 3 tablespoons of melted butter with the pressed garlic and a pinch of salt. Brush this garlic butter generously all over the surface of the dough.
Bake For 20-25 Minutes
Sprinkle the grated cheese and chopped fresh herbs evenly over the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the flatbread is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Cool Slightly Before Slicing
Let it cool slightly before slicing. It's delicious served warm on its own, or as a side to soups and stews.
