Step 1

Preheat your oven to 240°C (465°F) and place a baking sheet or pizza stone inside to heat.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, and salt.

Step 3

Add the warm water and olive oil to the flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms.

Knead the dough gently on a floured surface until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Roll out the dough on a sheet of baking paper into a thin rectangle or oval shape, approximately 3mm thick.

Step 6

Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough on the baking paper onto the preheated baking sheet or stone.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix together creme fraiche, sour cream, ground nutmeg, and black pepper.

Step 8

Spread the creme fraiche mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 9

Scatter the sliced onions and bacon strips evenly over the creme fraiche layer.

Step 10

Bake the Flammenkuchen in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and golden-brown and the bacon is cooked.

Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chives.

Step 12

Cut into slices and serve immediately.
