Flatbread with Dates, Blue Cheese and Shallots
Ingredients
- 16 ounces prepared pizza dough at room temperature, divided into two
- 8 ounces Roquefort or other good quality blue cheese, crumbled
- 10 dates
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced into rings
- 4 to 6 sage leaves, torn
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- Red pepper flakes for serving, optionals
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
- Shape the pizza dough into 9 to 10-inch rounds and transfer to a large, lightly oiled rimmed sheet pan.
- Drizzle each with 1 tablespoon olive oil and bake until the dough starts to turn golden, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and evenly scatter the blue cheese over top of the pizzas, followed by the shallots, dates and the sage leaves.
- Drizzle remaining olive oil over top.
- Bake, rotating the baking pan halfway through, until the blue cheese begins to bubble, and the sage leaves are slightly crispy, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Season with red pepper flakes, should you like.
