Ingredients

• 300 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 7 grams Instant yeast
• 240 milliliters Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 200 grams Mozzarella cheese, grated
• 150 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
• 100 grams Ricotta cheese
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 large Extra egg for topping
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, sugar, salt, and yeast.

Step 2

Pour the warm water and olive oil into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky.

Step 3

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 5

After the dough has risen, divide it into two equal parts. Using lightly floured hands, form each part into an oval shape on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 6

Shape each oval into a boat by pinching the ends and folding in the sides slightly to create a rim.

Step 7

In a bowl, mix the mozzarella, feta, and ricotta cheeses together. Divide the mixture between the two dough boats, spreading evenly along the bottom and sides.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the edges are golden and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and make a small well in the center of each boat. Crack an egg into each well.

Step 10

Return to the oven for another 8-10 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and place a tablespoon of butter on the edge of each khachapuri.

Step 12

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately. To eat, mix the melted butter and egg yolk into the cheese filling.
