Ingredients

Scale

For the Flatbread

  • 1 pre-made flatbread or naan (68 inches)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Topping

  • 4 oz (115g) Brie cheese, sliced
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 2 tablespoons shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Fresh thyme leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the flatbread and toppings evenly.
  2. Prepare the Flatbread: Lightly brush the pre-made flatbread or naan with olive oil on both sides and place it on a baking sheet to ensure it crisps nicely in the oven.
  3. Add Toppings: Arrange the sliced Brie evenly across the flatbread, then sprinkle the dried cranberries and chopped pistachios on top. Drizzle with honey for a touch of sweetness that balances the savory flavors.
  4. Bake: Place the flatbread in the oven and bake for 8–10 minutes until the Brie has melted beautifully and the flatbread is crisp and golden.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over the top for an herbal note, then cut into wedges and serve warm as a delicious appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • Use pre-made flatbread or naan to save preparation time and ensure crispiness.
  • You can substitute pistachios with walnuts or pecans if preferred.
  • For a vegan version, replace Brie with a plant-based cheese alternative and honey with maple syrup.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the Brie melted and flatbread crisp.
