Ingredients

Bread

Toppings

  • 1 pint sliced cherry tomatoes
  • 2 Tbsp. sliced olives
  • Fresh herbs of choice (parsley, rosemary, etc.)
  • Pink salt (optional)
  • Sesame seeds (optional)

  2. Divide dough into two equal portions. Transfer to parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. Moisten fingers (to prevent sticking) and shape dough into two 7-in. ovals or circles.
  3. On top of each circle, arrange sliced tomatoes, olives and herbs in a pattern you like. Sprinkle with fresh herbs, and salt and/or sesame seeds if desired. Bake 20 minutes.
