Cheese Pizza Flat Bread

While I love to load a pizza crust with lots of veggies and toppings some days I really just want a nice cheesy cheese pizza. Today was definitely one of those days for me, I wanted something that I could toss in the oven within 10-15 minutes and be ready in about the same time. It isn't as filling as a topping loaded pizza but it definitely hit the spot in my cheese craving! Feel free to use this as a blank canvas to add your favorite toppings too. I am once again using the dough recipe from Natural Fusion Videos which I find easy quick and tasty!

Cheese Pizza Flat Bread: Serves 2-3

1C Flour
1/2tsp Salt
1-1/2tsp Baking Powder
1-1/2tsp Shortening
1/3C Milk
3/4C Tomato Sauce
1-1/2tsp Fresh Basil (1/2tsp dried)
1tsp Fresh Oregano (1/3tsp dried)
2 Garlic Cloves - Minced
Salt & Pepper
1/2C Ricotta (I used part skim milk)
1C Mozzarella Cheese (I used part skim)

With an electric mixer mix the flour through milk together until a dough ball forms. Remove from the mixer and place on a floured surface and roll out to fit your pizza pan. Place on a greased pan.

Next mix together the tomato sauce, basil, oregano, garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Evenly spread the sauce over the crust, then drop teaspoonfuls of ricotta all over the crust.

Place in a 475° oven for 8 minutes, remove and quickly sprinkle the Mozzarella Cheese on top of the pizza, place back in the oven and cook for an additional 7 minutes.

Remove from the oven, slice into 8 pieces and enjoy!
