Ingredients
1 large flatbread or naan
3 tablespoons pesto sauce
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup Kalamata olives, sliced
1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon fresh basil or parsley, chopped
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Place the flatbread on the sheet and spread pesto evenly over it, leaving a small crust border.
3. Layer with mozzarella cheese, then add cherry tomatoes, olives, and red onion slices.
4. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
5. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden and crispy.
6. Remove from oven, garnish with fresh basil or parsley, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
For a crispier base, place the flatbread directly on a preheated pizza stone.
Use paper towels to dab excess moisture from tomatoes before layering to avoid sogginess.
Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze after baking for an extra burst of flavor.
