Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread

  • 1 pre-made pizza or flatbread crust (about 1012 inches)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Toppings

  • 6 oz (170g) Brie cheese, sliced
  • ½ cup fig preserves or fresh figs, sliced
  • ¼ cup chopped shelled pistachios
  • Fresh thyme leaves, for garnish
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oven and Flatbread: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the flatbread on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush it lightly with olive oil to ensure a crisp texture during baking.
  2. Assemble the Toppings: Evenly layer the sliced Brie cheese over the flatbread. Spread fig preserves or arrange fresh fig slices evenly on top of the cheese. Sprinkle chopped pistachios generously, then season lightly with salt and pepper for balanced flavor.
  3. Bake the Flatbread: Place the assembled flatbread in the preheated oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the Brie cheese has melted completely and the edges of the flatbread turn a beautiful golden brown.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Remove the flatbread from the oven and sprinkle fresh thyme leaves on top for an aromatic finish. Slice into portions and serve warm to enjoy the perfect combination of flavors and textures.

Notes

  • You can use either fig preserves or fresh figs depending on availability and preference.
  • For a nuttier flavor, toast the pistachios lightly before chopping and sprinkling.
  • This flatbread is best enjoyed warm to appreciate the melted Brie and crunchy crust.
  • Substitute thyme with rosemary or basil if desired for a different herbal note.
