Pre-heat oven to 230°C/450°F. Dust work surface with some flour. Place the dough onto the surface and divide the dough into small pieces of equal size. Use your hand to knead the dough pieces into a round shape. Then fold in the edges to form an oval shape. Place the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Distribute the cheese mixture evenly onto the dough. Bake for approx. 15 min.
