Print Recipe

A quick and easy flatbread recipe combining the sweet freshness of figs, salty prosciutto, creamy gorgonzola, and a spicy hot honey drizzle for a perfect balance of flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made flatbread or naan (8–10 inches)
  • Olive oil (extra virgin, for brushing)
  • 4–5 fresh figs, sliced (ripe but firm)
  • 4–6 slices thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 2–3 ounces gorgonzola or blue cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons hot honey (store-bought or homemade with honey and red pepper flakes)
  • Fresh arugula or basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
  • Cracked black pepper (optional, for seasoning)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place pizza stone in oven to heat for 30 minutes if using.
  2. Lightly brush both sides of flatbread or naan with olive oil. Place on parchment paper.
  3. Arrange sliced figs evenly over the flatbread.
  4. Tear or fold prosciutto slices and scatter over the figs.
  5. Sprinkle crumbled gorgonzola evenly on top.
  6. Transfer flatbread to hot pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and cheese softens.
  7. If making hot honey, mix 2 tablespoons honey with a pinch of red chili flakes in a small bowl while flatbread bakes.
  8. Remove flatbread from oven and drizzle hot honey generously over the top.
  9. Add fresh arugula or basil leaves and crack black pepper over if desired.
  10. Slice into wedges and serve immediately.

Notes

Use ripe but firm figs to avoid soggy flatbread. Brush olive oil on both sides of flatbread for a golden crust. Bake on a hot surface like a pizza stone or preheated baking sheet for crispness. Watch cheese melting to avoid over-melting. Adjust hot honey spice level to taste. Pat fig slices dry if soggy. Reheat leftovers in toaster oven or broiler to maintain crispness.
