Notes
Cooking Tips
-
Use High Heat: Roasting vegetables at a higher temperature helps them caramelize and develop deeper flavor.
-
Don’t Overcrowd: Spread vegetables in a single layer so they roast rather than steam.
-
Pre-bake the Flatbread: If you prefer extra crispiness, bake the flatbread alone for 3–4 minutes before adding toppings.
-
Add Fresh Elements: A sprinkle of arugula or microgreens after baking adds freshness and color.
Variations
Mediterranean Style
Add olives, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, and a sprinkle of oregano.
Vegan Version
Skip the cheese and add dairy-free mozzarella or a drizzle of tahini.
Protein Boost
Top with grilled chicken, chickpeas, or sliced sausage.
Spicy Flatbread
Add crushed red pepper flakes or drizzle with hot honey.
White Garlic Flatbread
Replace pesto with a garlic cream sauce or roasted garlic spread.
