My tummy told me it was lunch o’clock, so I clocked out at International Headquarters. That means I walked from my home office to the kitchen. A brief inventory revealed meat and cheese but no bread. Old me would have decided to go to the grocery store and then ditched those plans en route, in favor of Burger King. New me Used-but-remodeled me whipped out the ingredients to make some pesto cheddar bread. Calm down, guys – it’s basically just fancy pizza crust.
Let’s do this. You can bake a lot of things with this simple recipe for bread or crust or biscuits. There are two basic ingredients and you can build from there with seasoning and shapes. You’ll need 1.) plain Greek yogurt and 2.) self rising flour. You want about twice as much flour as you have yogurt. Adjust the oven temperature according to how thick the bread is going to be. So if you’re making som big ol’ cat head biscuits, the temperature will be around 350°F, so you can cook the middle without burning the outside. If you’re going to make pizza crust, the temperature should go a little higher, like 375°F for a thicker crust or 400°F for a thin crust.
For this particular recipe, I went with a medium crust and I added some pesto and parmesan into the dough. I was looking for it to come out of the oven looking like a sister to panini bread, but instead of grilling it, I put it under the broiler with cheese on top.















Makes me want to go cook some right now. Mine never turns out as good as yours.
