Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Thinly slice the zucchini into rounds. Halve the grape tomatoes. Mince the garlic clove. Zest and juice the lemon. Chop the herb blend (chives).
- In a small bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, lemon zest, half the minced garlic, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix until smooth and set aside.
- Heat 1 teaspoon cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini rounds and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper, then transfer to a plate.
- In the same skillet, add the halved grape tomatoes and cook for 1-2 minutes until they start to soften. Remove from heat.
- Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet. Brush each with a little olive oil. Bake for 5-7 minutes until crisp and lightly golden.
- Spread the lemon ricotta mixture evenly over the warm flatbreads. Top with the sautéed zucchini and tomatoes.
- Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with chili flakes and garnish with the chopped herb blend. Serve immediately.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispiness, bake the flatbreads directly on the oven rack for a minute or two before adding toppings.
If you prefer a milder heat, reduce the chili flakes to 1/2 teaspoon or omit entirely.
Substitute the herb blend with fresh chives and parsley if unavailable.
FAQ
Can I use a different type of flatbread?
Yes, you can use naan, pita or any pre-made flatbread. Adjust baking time as needed to achieve desired crispness.
How do I store leftovers?
Store leftover flatbreads in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or skillet to restore crispness.
Can I make this dairy-free?
Substitute the ricotta with a dairy-free alternative like cashew cream or tofu ricotta and use a plant-based yogurt if needed.
