Ingredients

Toppings

  • 8 slices bacon
  • 6 medium kohlrabi
  • olive oil spray
  • 3 large garlic cloves minced
  • 3 cups italian cheese blend

Flatbreads

  • 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour plus 1-2 cups more for dusting
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups plain lowfat greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp italian seasoning plus more for sprinkling

Sriracha Garlic Sauce (optional)

  • 6 tbsp garlic mayo
  • 6 tbsp whipped cream cheese
  • 3-4 tbsp sriracha more or less depending on how hot you want the sauce
  • 6 tbsp water
  • 1 green onion chopped

Instructions

  1. Chop bacon.  Mince garlic. Peel kohlrabi and shred using food processor. 

  2. Saute bacon until crispy. Remove from pan and place in a paper towel lined bowl. In the same pan, add kohlrabi and garlic. Cook for 2-3 min. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  3. Mix flour, baking powder, salt and Italian seasoning in a large bowl. Add greek yogurt and mix well. 

  4. On a floured surface, knead dough until it is no longer sticky. Separate into 6 equal parts. One by one, knead each part into a ball and roll out into the desired shape ( I made discs...see post for details). 

  5. Place rolled out dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spray with olive oil spray and top with kohlrabi, bacon, and 1/2 cup Italian cheese blend. 

  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and the dough is starting to turn brown. If you like it less crispy, take it out around the 8-minute mark. 

  7. Serve warm and top with Italian seasoning or crushed red pepper if desired. Enjoy!

To make sauce:

  1. Mix all ingredients together and drizzle over cooked warm flatbreads before serving.
