Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and remove any outer leaves. Shred them thinly using a knife or mandoline.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, Italian seasoning and a squeeze of lemon juice (about 1 teaspoon). Mix well and set aside.
  4. Place the flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the ricotta mixture evenly over each flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.
  5. Top the ricotta with the shredded Brussels sprouts, then sprinkle the Italian cheese blend and Parmesan cheese evenly over the sprouts.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the flatbreads are golden and crispy and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Drizzle with hot honey and finish with a sprinkle of lemon zest. Slice and serve warm.

Recipe Tips

For extra crispy flatbreads, bake directly on the oven rack for the last 2 minutes.

If you prefer a milder heat, use regular honey instead of hot honey.

Feel free to add cooked bacon or chicken for a non-vegetarian version.

FAQ

Can I use a different type of flatbread?

Yes, any store-bought flatbread, naan or even pizza dough will work. Adjust baking time as needed.

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 oven to restore crispiness.

Can I make this dairy-free?

Yes, substitute the ricotta with a dairy-free alternative and use vegan cheese blends. The hot honey and Brussels sprouts are naturally dairy-free.
