Ingredients

  • 1 flatbread mine was 6 x 12 inches-- adjust topping amounts for larger flatbread
  • 3 Tablespoons dried tomatoes in oil, drained & rinsed--or homemade, rehydrated
  • 3 Tablespoons prepared pesto
  • 2 ounces fresh mozzarella 1/4 of an 8-ounce ball
  • 2 slices of Prosciutto
  • 3 large multi-branch sprigs of thyme
  • 1-2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • sea salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Dot flatbread with dried tomatoes and small clumps of pesto.
  2. Pull irregular pieces of fresh mozzarella and add to the flatbread. Tear thin strips of prosciutto and place in any open spaces.
  3. Strip leaves and small tender young stems of thyme and sprinkle over everything. Drizzle with olive oil and add a sprinkle of salt.
  4. Place flatbread on hot pizza stone/pan or directly on rack in preheated 400 F oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes until mozzarella is melted and prosciutto is just starting to crisp

Notes

  • I first tried this with an intense whole grain flatbread. The flavors definitely didn't work together, so I recommend a white or sourdough flatbread base.
