Ingredients

  • 1 large flatbread
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup sliced turkey pepperoni
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for drizzling
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

  • Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven is essential to get that perfect crispy crust on your flatbread while roasting the tomatoes to enhance their natural flavor.

Step 2: Prepare the Flatbread Base

  • Place your large flatbread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup. Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the flatbread, leaving about a half-inch border around the edges. This will help keep the sauce from spilling over during baking.

Step 3: Add Cheese and Toppings

  • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the marinara sauce. Next, scatter the diced tomatoes across the flatbread, making sure to distribute them evenly for bursts of juicy freshness in every bite. Add the sliced turkey pepperoni in a single layer, followed by the black olives.

Step 4: Season and Drizzle

  • Sprinkle dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the toppings. These simple seasonings bring out the flavors beautifully. Drizzle a little olive oil over the entire flatbread to help everything roast nicely and add a subtle richness.

Step 5: Roast in the Oven

  • Place the flatbread in the preheated oven and roast for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, the edges of the flatbread are golden and crisp, and the tomatoes have softened and roasted slightly.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

  • Remove the flatbread from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and fresh, aromatic flavor. Slice into pieces and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use a high-quality marinara sauce for the best flavor, homemade or store-bought.
  • Pre-bake the flatbread for 3-4 minutes for a crispier crust before adding toppings.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven to maintain crispiness.
