Ingredients
Scale
Flatbread Base
- 1 (10-ounce) package pre-baked ultra-thin pizza crusts
- 2 tablespoons Roasted Garlic Infused Oil, divided
Toppings
- 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
- 1 (8-ounce) package fresh mozzarella ball, sliced (slices cut in half)
- 2 teaspoons Pizzeria Seasoning
- ⅓ cup fresh basil leaves, torn
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare the Crust: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). While the oven warms up, place the ultra-thin pizza crusts on a baking sheet or pizza stone. Brush each crust lightly with 1 tablespoon of roasted garlic infused oil to add flavor and help crisp the base.
- Add the Toppings: Evenly arrange the sliced tomatoes over the oiled crusts. Layer the fresh mozzarella slices atop the tomatoes, ensuring good coverage for melty cheese bites. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of pizzeria seasoning evenly across the flatbreads for that classic pizzeria flavor. Then, scatter torn fresh basil leaves to add brightness and aroma.
- Bake the Flatbreads: Place the prepared flatbreads in the preheated oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese has melted nicely and the crust edges turn golden and crisp.
- Finish with Parmesan: Remove the flatbreads from the oven and immediately sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese. The warmth will gently melt the Parmesan, adding a sharp, savory finish.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice the flatbreads into portions and serve warm for a quick, flavorful meal perfect for sharing.
Notes
- You can substitute fresh mozzarella with shredded mozzarella if preferred, but the fresh variety offers better melt and texture.
- If roasted garlic infused oil isn’t available, use extra virgin olive oil and add a pinch of garlic powder.
- Pizzeria seasoning typically includes a mix of dried oregano, basil, thyme, and garlic powder; you can use Italian seasoning as an alternative.
- For a crisper crust, use a pizza stone and preheat it in the oven before placing the flatbreads on it.
- Feel free to add additional toppings like olives, pepperoni, or mushrooms for variety.
