Directions
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the flour, eggs, oil, and salt. Stir together with a spoon until roughly incorporated.
- 2
Add the sugar, instant yeast, and warm milk. Mix well until you get a smooth, uniform batter-like dough.
- 3
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and let the dough rise for 30 minutes in a warm, enclosed space (a turned-off oven or closed microwave works great).
- 4
Preheat your oven to 360 °F (180 °C).
- 5
Grease a large rectangular baking pan with oil. Pour in the dough and spread it evenly using the back of a wet spoon.
- 6
In a bowl, mix the drained tuna, cream cheese, sliced olives, and palm hearts. Spread the topping evenly over the entire surface of the dough.
- 7
Sprinkle generously with dried oregano and shredded cheese.
- 8
Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the dough is fully cooked and the top is lightly golden.
💡 Chef's Tip
For an even fluffier crust, swap half the oil for plain yogurt. Feel free to add corn, roasted peppers, or shredded chicken to the topping.
