Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tsp instant yeast, and 1 tsp salt.
Step 2: Pour in 3/4 cup warm water (110°F) and 2 tbsp olive oil, mixing with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
Step 3: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 4: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour until doubled in size.
Step 5: Preheat oven to 475°F and place a baking stone or sheet inside to heat.
Step 6: Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a 12-inch oval on parchment paper.
Step 7: Sprinkle 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves and 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary evenly over the dough.
Step 8: Arrange 6 oz sliced fresh mozzarella over the herb-covered dough.
Step 9: Transfer the flatbread on the parchment to the hot baking stone and bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.
Step 10: Remove from oven and immediately drizzle 1 tbsp honey over the hot flatbread before slicing and serving.
