Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 475°F and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 8 oz sliced wild mushrooms. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until mushrooms are browned and tender. Season with 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves. Remove from heat.
Step 3: On a floured surface, roll out 1 lb pizza dough into a 12-inch oval shape. Brush the dough with 1 tbsp olive oil.
Step 4: Sprinkle 6 oz shredded Applewood smoked cheddar evenly over the dough, leaving a small border.
Step 5: Evenly distribute the sautéed mushrooms over the cheese.
Step 6: Carefully transfer the flatbread to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Step 7: Remove from oven and garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley before slicing and serving.
