This recipe is super easy to assemble and is perfect for a summertime appetizer. The beauty of homemade flatbread is that you can make the dough ahead and freeze for later use. Stockpile a few balls of dough. Nothing quite beats the freshness.

Wow! options

Flatbread can be wowed with all sorts of toppings. Switch out the figs with other fruits that pair well with beets such as grapes, pears, blackberries, or peaches. And if there’s a carnivore in your midst, tuck in some thinly shaved prosciutto before grilling.

Explore balsamic flavours
