Ingredients
Scale
Flatbread Base
- 1 flatbread
- Olive oil for drizzling
- Salt and pepper to taste
Toppings
- 1 ripe peach, sliced
- 4 oz burrata cheese
- 2 tbsp hot honey
- Fresh basil leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for crisping the flatbread and warming the cheese.
- Prepare Flatbread: Place the flatbread on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil evenly over the surface. This will help it crisp up nicely while baking.
- Add Peach Slices: Arrange the sliced peaches evenly on top of the flatbread, distributing them so every bite has a bit of juicy sweetness.
- Add Burrata: Break the burrata cheese into pieces and distribute them over the peaches, allowing the creamy cheese to melt slightly as it bakes.
- Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the flatbread to enhance all the flavors.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the flatbread is crispy and the burrata cheese is warm and slightly melted.
- Drizzle Hot Honey: Remove the flatbread from the oven and immediately drizzle the hot honey over the top, balancing sweetness with a subtle spicy kick.
- Garnish and Serve: Finish by garnishing with fresh basil leaves to add a fragrant, fresh touch and serve warm.
Notes
- Use ripe peaches for the best sweetness and flavor.
- If you don’t have hot honey, mix honey with a pinch of red chili flakes as a substitute.
- Burrata can be delicate, handle carefully to keep its creamy center intact.
- Serve immediately for the best texture as the flatbread is crispiest right out of the oven.
- To make this recipe vegetarian, ensure the burrata cheese is made with vegetarian rennet.
