Sweet strawberries meet creamy Brie on crispy flatbread with honey and fresh basil

# What You'll Need:

→ Flatbread

01 - 2 pre-made flatbread rounds or naan breads

→ Cheese

02 - 5.3 oz Brie cheese, sliced

→ Fruits

03 - 7 oz fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Place the flatbread rounds on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each flatbread evenly with olive oil using a small brush.
03 - Arrange the Brie slices evenly across each flatbread, covering the surface to the edges.
04 - Scatter the sliced strawberries over the Brie in an even layer.
05 - Drizzle the honey evenly over the top of each flatbread.
06 - Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the flatbread edges are golden and crisp.
07 - Remove from the oven. Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired, sprinkle with chopped fresh basil, and season with freshly ground black pepper.
08 - Slice each flatbread into wedges or squares and serve warm.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The honey and balsamic hit that sweet savory line that makes you unable to stop at one piece.
  • It looks like something from a restaurant menu but honestly comes together in under half an hour with almost zero technique required.
02 -
  • Do not walk away during the last two minutes of baking because the line between perfectly golden and burnt is startlingly thin.
  • Letting it rest for even one minute before slicing helps the cheese set slightly so toppings do not slide right off.
03 -
  • Slice the strawberries about the thickness of a coin so they roast into jammy tenderness without dissolving entirely.
  • Warming the honey slightly in the microwave for ten seconds makes it drizzle in a fine, elegant stream rather than clumping in thick globs.
