What can I use other than naan bread to make a flatbread appetizer?

If you don't have naan bread to make a flatbread appetizer you can use pita bread, store-bought pizza shells or pizza dough.

What is a baking or pizza stone?

A baking or pizza stone is a thick, flat piece of natural stone or ceramic used for baking bread, pizza, and other baked goods. It is placed in the oven while it's preheating. This creates an extremely hot surface for even baking. The purpose of using a baking or pizza stone is to mimic the conditions of a traditional brick oven, which can reach higher temperatures than a regular oven at home and will provide a consistent heat source.

Can I use canned peaches to make peach flatbread pizza?

Yes, you can definitely use canned peaches to make peach flatbread pizza when fresh peaches are not in season or readily available. While fresh peaches are preferred canned peaches can be a convenient alternative. Make sure to drain the peaches well. You can gently pat them dry with a paper towel to prevent the flatbread from becoming soggy during baking.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425˚F. If you have a pizza stone place it inside the oven to heat up, if not set out a large baking sheet and set aside.
In a frying pan, heat a tablespoon of oil on low to medium heat. Add sliced shallots to the pan with a pinch of salt. Slowly cook onions until translucent and starting to brown. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Brush the naan bread with olive oil, both on the top and bottom. Sprinkle the tops with sea salt, ground pepper and add fresh thyme all over (approx. 4 sprigs for each naan).
Top with ricotta and add the sauteed shallots.
Then gently push the peach slices into the ricotta. Add a pinch of ground pepper on top (and a few extra thyme leaves for colour, you can also do this after the naan bakes).
Bake in the oven for approx. 10-12 minutes until the peaches are soft and the edges are browned and crisp. Remove from the heat and let cool on the pan for 5 minutes.
Drizzle the honey over the top of each flatbread, slice into wedges and serve.

Notes

Enjoy the same day.

You can also bbq the peach ricotta flatbread. You will get the best results by using a bbq mat.

For a healthier twist use whole wheat flatbreads.
