  • Author: Tyla
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 3–4 1x

Description

This is what happens when your favorite Mediterranean flavors all decide to party on a soft, warm, golden flatbread. It’s like a pizza, but fancier and lighter — topped with creamy hummus, tangy olives, sun-dried tomatoes, fresh herbs, and maybe a crumble of feta if you’re feeling extra. Perfect for lunch, dinner, or slicing into pieces for a shareable appetizer that makes you look like you really know your way around a kitchen.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Flatbread Dough:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • ¾ cup warm water

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp sugar

  • 1 tsp instant yeast

For the Toppings:

  • ½ cup hummus (classic or garlic)

  • ¼ cup crumbled feta

  • ¼ cup sliced kalamata olives

  • ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

  • ½ small red onion, thinly sliced

  • A handful of arugula or fresh spinach

  • Drizzle of olive oil + balsamic glaze (optional but chef’s kiss)

  • Fresh parsley or basil for garnish


Instructions

Step 1: Make the Dough
In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar.
Add warm water and olive oil. Stir until it comes together.
Knead for 5–6 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Cover and let rise in a warm spot for 45 minutes until doubled.

Step 2: Cook the Flatbread
Punch down the dough and divide into 2–3 pieces.
Roll each piece out into a rough oval or round shape (about ¼-inch thick).
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Cook flatbreads one at a time, 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and puffed. Set aside.

Step 3: Build the Magic
Spread a generous layer of hummus over each flatbread.
Top with crumbled feta, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion, and greens.
Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze, then sprinkle with fresh herbs.

Notes

  • Use tzatziki or baba ghanoush instead of hummus

  • Add roasted veggies like zucchini or eggplant
