Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread Base

  • 2 flatbreads or naan
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce

Toppings

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it is hot enough to crisp the flatbreads perfectly.
  2. Prepare Flatbreads: Place the flatbreads or naan onto a baking sheet. Evenly spread a thin layer of tomato sauce over the surface of each flatbread to serve as the base flavor layer.
  3. Toss Cherry Tomatoes: In a bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat all the tomatoes evenly, infusing them with a savory taste.
  4. Assemble Flatbreads: Scatter the seasoned cherry tomatoes over the tomato sauce-layered flatbreads, distributing them evenly for balanced topping coverage.
  5. Bake Flatbreads: Bake the prepared flatbreads in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges become crispy and the tomatoes are slightly roasted.
  6. Add Burrata Cheese: Remove the baked flatbreads from the oven. While still hot, tear the burrata cheese into pieces and spread it generously on top. The heat will slightly soften the cheese, creating a creamy texture.
  7. Garnish: Top each flatbread with fresh basil leaves for aromatic freshness. Drizzle with balsamic glaze to add a sweet and tangy contrast.
  8. Serve: Slice the flatbreads if desired and serve immediately while warm to enjoy the cheese at its creamy best and the flatbread crisp.

Notes

  • You can substitute naan with pita or any flatbread of choice.
  • For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes before baking.
  • Balsamic glaze can be homemade by reducing balsamic vinegar with a touch of sugar or store-bought for convenience.
  • Serve with a side salad for a more complete meal.
  • Use fresh, high-quality burrata for the best taste and creamy texture.
