-1 cup (125g) all purpose flour
-3 to 4 tsp (13-18g) olive oil
-1/3 cup (80ml) water

Topping;
-2 tbsp (15g) sour cream
-1/2 red onion , thinly sliced
-1/2 cup (70g) firm farmer's cheese or Monterey Jack cheese, grated

Feel free to use other toppings instead of or with the onion and prosciutto, but not too many as it's a very light crust. You can also make a delicious tart by topping with cinnamon and sliced apples.

Notes: Karin and I had the fortune to take a river cruise in August of 2022 where we had Flammkuchen for our first time in Strasburg, Germany. It was a wonderful light snack or meal. Later, on the boat we learned how to prepare one and enjoyed it every time!
