In this flatbread pizza recipe, tomato sauce is layered on a slice of flatbread, sprinkled with oregano and garlic powder, then topped with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil. Add a sprinkle of sea salt, pop it in the oven for 10 minutes and you've got a quick dinner ready in just 15 minutes. It can also be cooked in the air fryer in just 5 minutes! You can make a basic cheese flatbread and pepperoni flatbread the same way.

Perfect for busy weeknights or lazy weekends. I could eat pizza every day, for every meal. Who can resist the gooey cheesy taste of a fresh pizza? Make sure to check out this delicious Mediterranean pizza made with a homemade pizza dough, thin crust pizza dough, or authentic Italian pizza dough next.

Ingredients

  • Flatbread: I like using garlic flavored na'an bread but any flatbread works great. Even a pita or tortilla!
  • Plain tomato sauce: I use a can of tomato sauce without any seasonings.
  • Fresh mozzarella slices: whole milk mozzarella is preferred because it melts better than part-skim, which tends to brown more easily.
  • Oregano & garlic powder: these really give the sauce a bit of a kick, so don't skip them!
  • Chopped tomatoes: you can also use slices. I like using plum tomatoes because they cut smaller, but you can use whatever tomatoes you have on hand.
  • Fresh basil leaves: I don't recommend substituting with dry basil. The fresh basil really enhances the other flavors.
  • Sea salt: I also don't recommend substituting with table salt. The minerals in sea salt enhance its flavor and your pizza won't be as tasty without it. Be subtle with sea salt at first. You can always add more.

How To Make Margherita Flatbread

Making flatbread pizza is super easy! It takes minutes to prepare and minutes to cook.

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, leaving a pizza stone of baking sheet in the oven. Transferring your uncooked flatbread pizza to a heated stone creates a nice crispy crust. If using an air fryer, you can skip preheating unless your air fryer requires you to. The flatbread can be air fried directly on the rack or in the basket.
  2. Spread an even layer of tomato sauce onto the bread. Sprinkle with garlic powder and oregano and place the mozzarella slices on top. Place tomatoes in the gaps between the cheese slices and sprinkle with sea salt. Drizzle with olive oil.
  3. Put the flatbread on the stone in the preheated oven. Bake for 10 minutes. If using an air fryer, cook for 4-5 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove from oven and place the basil leaves on top of the pizza. Let them settle into the pizza for a few minutes.

Enjoy!
