Easy Khachapuri Recipe

cheese

🥗Healthier: cottage cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta

Cottage cheese provides a lower-fat option while maintaining creaminess.

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil is healthier and still adds richness.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: bread flour

Whole wheat flour increases fiber content.

yogurt

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt offers similar tanginess with lower calories.

In a bowl, add 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese, 3/4 cup of crumbled feta cheese, 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, and 1 cup of ricotta cheese.

Thoroughly mix all the cheeses together and set aside.

Let your pizza dough sit at room temperature for about 1 hour.

Place the dough on a floured surface and divide it in half.

Take one half of the dough, shape it into a ball, and roll it out to about 9 inches in diameter.

Repeat this process with the other half of the dough.

Place both doughs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Fill the center of each dough with the cheese mixture.

Roll up the sides of each dough and twist the ends to create a boat-like shape.

Cover the cheese boats with a kitchen towel and proof for about 30 to 40 minutes.

After proofing, remove the towel and brush the dough with egg wash.

Bake the khachapuri at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes.

Make a well in the center of each cheese boat, crack an egg in the middle, and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter to each khachapuri.

Bake for an additional 5 minutes and enjoy warm.
