Kate Hudson’s Fig & Burrata Flatbread

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cup All Purpose Flour
• ½ cup Water
• 1/3 cup Olive Oil
• ½ tsp Salt
• 1 whole Burrata
• 10 whole Figs, sliced in quarters
• 1 cup Arugula
• 1 tbs Honey
• ½ tsp Fleur De Sel

 Directions

• Pre-heat oven to 450° F.
• Using medium bowl, mix together water and salt. While mixing, slowly add the olive oil.
• Add ¾ of the flour and whisk together the mixture until you have an elastic sticky dough.
• Gradually add the rest of the flour until you get workable dough.
• Roll the dough into a circle using a roller, not making the dough too thin. Note: it does not need to be perfectly round.
• Bake in greased pan for 8 – 10 minutes or until dry and crispy.
• Brush the flatbread with olive oil and let it completely cool, otherwise your cheese will melt.
• Top flatbread with burrata cheese mounds, sliced figs and arugula.
• Finish with a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of fleur de sel.
• Slice flatbread into squares to enjoy!
