Savory Zucchini and Onion Flatbread

Ingredients

4 servings
|
  • 1/2 cup
    Parmesan cheese grated or Pecorino cheese
  • 3 tbsp
    Parsley fresh or Cilantro
  • 1
    Red onion medium or Shallot
  • 2
    Zucchini medium or Yellow squash
  • 2 tbsp
    Olive oil extra virgin or Avocado oil
  • 1
    Pizza dough pre-made or Flatbread
  • 1/2 cup
    Herb cheese spread soft or Cream cheese with herbs

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy crust.

2

Prepare the baking sheet

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with nonstick spray.

Parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.

3

Roll out the dough

Roll out the pizza dough onto the prepared parchment paper.

Ensure the dough is evenly rolled for consistent baking.

4

Spread the cheese

Spread half of the herb cheese spread over one half of the dough, leaving a border around the edges.

Leaving a border prevents the cheese from oozing out during baking.

5

Add cheese and herbs

Sprinkle half of the grated Parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons of parsley over the cheese spread.

The Parmesan adds a savory flavor that complements the herbs.

Fold the dough

Fold the dough over the cheese-covered half, but do not seal the edges.

Folding creates layers and a stuffed flatbread effect.

Top with cheese

Spread the remaining herb cheese spread on top of the folded dough and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese.

This creates a flavorful crust on top of the flatbread.

Bake the flatbread

Bake in the preheated oven until the flatbread is golden brown and puffed, about 24 minutes.

Keep an eye on the flatbread to prevent over-browning.

12

Garnish and serve

Sprinkle the remaining parsley over the flatbread before serving.

Fresh parsley adds a pop of color and freshness.
