Tips

Tip 1

For a crispy pizza-style version, assemble on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F for 12-15 minutes until flatbread edges are golden.

Tip 2

Drain sun-dried tomatoes well to prevent the flatbread from becoming soggy.

Tip 3

Warm the naan slightly before assembling for easier spreading and better flavor melding.

Good to Know

FAQ

Can I make this vegan?

Yes, substitute hummus for the base, use vegan pesto, and omit the feta cheese or use vegan feta alternative.

What if I don't have naan?

Pita bread, tortillas, or even toasted sourdough slices work well as substitutes for the naan base.

How long will leftovers keep?

Assembled flatbreads keep 1-2 days refrigerated, though texture is best when fresh. Store components separately for longer storage.
