Instructions
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 415°F and place a rack in the middle position.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup creme fraiche with 1 tbsp chunky garlic (or 2 cloves pressed) and 1 tsp fresh oregano (or 1 tsp dried). Stir until evenly mixed.
- Place the 3 pieces of pita bread (or flatbreads) on a baking sheet or pizza pan, spaced so air can circulate between them.
- Evenly spread the creme fraiche mixture over the top of each pita, leaving a small edge if you prefer a crust.
- Divide the 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan and 1/4 cup freshly grated Asiago evenly over the three pitas.
- Distribute the 4 cups of fresh baby spinach leaves evenly over the pitas (pat spinach dry first if it is wet).
- Top each pita with the 8 oz sliced fresh mozzarella, arranging the slices so the cheese covers the spinach.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the mozzarella is bubbly and lightly browned. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then cut and serve.
