Crescia
San-Marino
⏱ — min. Serves: —

Ingredients

  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) grated Pecorino Romano cheese
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary

Instructions

Prepare the Dough

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add Cheese

Stir in the grated Pecorino Romano and Parmesan cheeses.

Mix Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and olive oil.

Combine

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

Be careful not to overmix.

Add Rosemary

Gently fold in the chopped fresh rosemary.

Bake

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool and Serve

Let the Crescia cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your meal!
