Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

8g (2 teaspoons) instant yeast
35g (2 heaped tablespoons) castor sugar
225ml lukewarm water
450g bread flour
10g Pink Salt Flakes
1 jar Roasted Wattleseed, Capsicum & Chilli Relish
100g - 200g crumbled feta cheese
1 egg, beaten
Sesame seeds for sprinkling, optional
Prosciutto or whole egg for topping, optional

Instructions

Mix yeast, sugar, and water in a bowl. Let's sit for 5 minutes.
Add flour and salt. Knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Cover and rest for 1.5–2 hours or until doubled.
Preheat oven to 240°C. Line two trays with baking paper.
Divide the dough into 6 pieces. Shape into ovals (15cm x 10cm x 0.5cm thick). Roll edges inward and pinch ends to create boat shapes. Place on trays.
Fill each with 1.5–2 tbsp relish and top with feta. Brush edges with egg and sprinkle sesame seeds.
Bake for 10–12 minutes until golden.
Optional: Add prosciutto before baking, or bake boats for 8 minutes, then crack an egg into the centre and bake an additional 3 minutes.
