Method
 

. Preheat the Oven
  1. Arrange the oven racks in the upper and lower thirds.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  3. Lightly dust two baking sheets with flour to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Dough
  1. Divide the dough into two equal balls.
  2. On a floured surface, stretch or roll each ball into a 12"x6" rectangle.
  3. Place the dough on the prepared baking sheets.
3. Make the Sauce
  1. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, lime juice, chili powder, and salt.
  2. Reserve 1/4 cup of the sauce for drizzling after baking.
4. Assemble the Flatbreads
  1. Spread the remaining sauce evenly over the dough.
  2. Top with corn kernels, shredded mozzarella, crumbled cotija cheese, and a sprinkle of chili powder.
5. Bake the Flatbreads
  1. Bake for 15-20 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through.
  2. The flatbreads are ready when the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the crust is golden.
6. Add Final Touches
  1. Drizzle the reserved sauce over the baked flatbreads.
  2. Garnish with fresh cilantro and additional cotija cheese if desired.
  3. Serve with lime wedges for an extra zing.

Notes

  • Use fresh corn kernels for the best flavor, but frozen or canned corn works in a pinch.
  • For a smokier flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika to the sauce.
