Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425˚. Lightly brush a large rimmed baking sheet with olive oil. Add the dough and stretch it into a very thin rectangle on the pan, about 11 by 15 inches. If the dough springs back when stretched, let it rest a few minutes and try again.

Step 2

Mix the olive oil with the grated garlic and chopped thyme and evenly brush over the dough. Sprinkle with the salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Evenly top with the jack cheese and pear slices. Dot the blue cheese over the top and sprinkle with the thyme leaves and the remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper.

Step 3

Bake until the crust is golden brown and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes. Loosen the flatbread from the pan with a metal spatula and slide onto a cutting board. Cut into pieces.
