Mini Skillet Focaccias

To prepare the mini skillet focaccias, first pour the flour into a bowl. Add the salt 1 and instant yeast 2. Also add the water 3.

Start mixing with a wooden spoon 4 and when you have a uniform mixture, add the oil 5. Mix again, then start kneading with your hands 6.

Transfer to a work surface and knead until you get a uniform dough 7. Now form a loaf 8 and from this, cut out 10 pieces weighing 2-2.1 oz 9.

From each portion, form a ball by lifting the edges of the dough and bringing them towards the center 10. Flip onto the work surface (because the seam should be at the base) and rotate each ball between your hands to give it a perfect spherical shape. Do the same for all the others 11. Cover with a towel 12 and let rest. 

Meanwhile, cut the cheese into small cubes 13. Take one of the balls and roll it out with a rolling pin on a floured surface 14, you should get a thin disk 15.

Place the cheese cubes in the center 16, place a slice of ham on top 17, and add more cheese 18.

Now close the flatbreads by lifting the edges of the dough and pinching them together at the center 19. Do the same for all sides, forming a well-sealed bundle 20. Flip it onto the work surface and rotate it gently 21.

Place the flatbreads in a hot skillet 22. Wait a few seconds, then press them gently 23. Cover with a lid and continue cooking for 5-6 minutes 24.

Remove the lid, flip the flatbreads 25, and press them gently again 26 continue cooking for another 5-6 minutes. This way, the heat will penetrate inside, and the cheese will be well melted. Transfer to a cutting board and serve your skillet flatbreads 27.
