Ingredients

For the Cheese Filling

  • 1 pkg Cream cheese (224 g / 8 oz)
  • 2 Cup Cottage Cheese (454 g / 16 oz)
  • 4 TBS Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 Cups Shredded Tillamook Chedder Cheese (224 g / 8 oz)
  • 2 tsp Dried Sage
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano

For the Dough

  • 1 3/4 Cup Warm Water (420 ml / 14 oz)
  • 1 TBS Sugar
  • 1 TBS Active dry yeast
  • 6 Cups AP Flour (720 g / 26 oz)
  • 1/4 Cup Olive Oil
  • 1 TBS Salt

Instructions

To make the Cheese Filling

  1. In a Large bowl place the cream cheese and beat using a hand mixer.

  2. Add the rest of the ingridients and mix with a large spoon (or your hands) to completely incorporate. Set aside.

To make the Dough

  1. Pour the water in a mixing bowl and add the sugar and yeast. Gently mix and let sit for 10-15 minutes. Until the yeast are active.

  2. Add the first cup pf flour followed by the oil and salt.

  3. Add another 4 1/2 cups of flour, mixing with a wooden spoon until the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl and comes together.

  4. On a clean and flat surface, sprinkle the last 1/2 cup of flour. Place the dough and knead it until is begins to feel like it is coming together (5-7 minutes). If needed add just enough flour to keep the dough from sticking to the surface.

  5. Let the dought rest for about 5 minutes then continue kneading until it feels smooth and springy.

  6. Place the dough in a clean bowl and lightly grease the top with oil spray/oil.

  7. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 3-4 hours.

To Assemble and Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.

  2. Lighlty flour your work surface and place the dough on top.

  3. Divide the dough into the amount of pieces you wishes to bake. (see notes)

  4. Press each piece into a flat disk using the palms of your hands and let rest for 10-15 minutes. This will help the dough from bouncing back when you shape it.

  5. Line your baking pan with parchment paper. Place a piece of dough in the center of the pan and spread the dough from the center out until the pan is completely lined with dough.

  6. Brush the rolled dough with olive oil then top it with cheese filling. Evenly spread the filling.

  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the spread is golden color.

  8. remove from the oven and allow 5-10 minutes to set a bit before slicing.
