Jalapeno Popper Flatbread

Holy Lord.

This flatbread is insanity.

Insanity in a good way.

No, no, not like Shaun T. Insanit y, but insanity as in insanely delicious.

You all know my obsession with jalapenos. I have a problem; really I do. If you aren’t so familiar – go here, here and here. That will get you up to speed. If not, there’s more where those came from; just ask. This is how I ended up making this.

So stay with me here.

So, I succumbed to a jalapeno popper dip that I found on Pinterest (of course) and it was fabulous. Anyway, a couple of days went by and there was some left in the fridge and I was in the mood to play. Oh, and I was hungry. So, I made my crust, went with my gut and – yes – spread it all on there, topped it with bacon and baked it.

Then, something divine happened.

This.

This is like crack. Pure crack, I tell you.

Not only is the popper dip fantastic on its own, it’s absolutely perfect for this flatbread. Maybe next time I’ll add more jalapeno slices – I’m crazy like that.

I’m Shea, and I’m a Jalapenoholic.

Jalapeno Popper Flatbread

Ingredients

  • Flatbread:
  • 1 tsp active dry yeast
  • 2 1/3 cups warm water (not too warm)
  • 4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup olive oil plus more for oiling the bowl
  • Popper Dip
  • 1/2 pound bacon, cooked and crumbled

Instructions

  • Sprinkle yeast over the warm water; let sit for 10 minutes until frothy.
  • In a stand mixer, combine flour with salt.
  • With mixer on low, drizzle in olive oil then yeast/water mixture.
  • Mix on low/medium until a dough ball forms.
  • Transfer to a bowl drizzled with olive oil; cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
  • Take half of the dough from the fridge and spread it out thin on an oiled lined baking sheet.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and spoon about 1/3 of the popper dip (that's what I had left when I made this) on the dough. Of course, you can use as much as you want.
  • Sprinkle bacon over top and bake for 15 minutes, or until corners of bread are slightly brown.
