Ingredients
for
2
- For the dough
- 2 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet Dried yeast (approx. 1 tbsp)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- all-purpose flour (for working the dough)
- For the topping
- ⅔ cup Sour cream
- ⅞ cup Crème fraiche
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 Pear (cored and cut into wedges or bite-sized pieces)
- 1.333 cups Bacon (roughly chopped)
- ½ cup sliced Hazelnuts
Preparation steps
1.
For the dough, mix the flour with the yeast, salt and sugar and knead with around 7 ounces lukewarm water to form a fairly firm dough that comes away from the sides of the bowl. Cover and leave in a warm place for around 30 minutes to prove.
2.
Preheat the oven to 475°F. Cut grease-proof paper to the size of two baking trays, then put the trays in the oven to heat.
3.
For the topping, mix the sour cream with the crème fraîche and egg yolk and season with salt and ground black pepper.
4.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and roll out into two flat rectangles. Place these on the grease-proof paper. Spread the crème fraîche mixture over the dough, leaving a narrow edge free. Top with the pear pieces and bacon and scatter over the nuts.
5.
Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven, cut into pieces and serve immediately.
