Mix flour, water, and a bit of oil in a bowl.

Stretch the dough to less than a millimeter thick.

Lay the first layer of dough on the cooking sheet.

Take balls of crescenza cheese, about a tablespoon each, and distribute evenly over the base of the pizza.

Cover the cheese with a second layer of thin dough, ensuring it is very thin and almost see-through.

Poke holes in the top layer to let steam escape during cooking.

Press gently all over the top to remove excess air.

Use a wooden mallet to cut off excess dough and seal the edges tightly to prevent cheese from escaping.

Sprinkle salt and a little bit of oil on top.

Bake in the oven for 6 minutes until golden brown.
