Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Flatbread
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thinly slice the zucchini and onion. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 6-8 minutes until softened and golden brown.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for an additional 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
Lightly brush each flatbread with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Evenly distribute the caramelized onions and minced garlic mixture over the flatbreads.
Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer across the flatbreads.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the zucchini.
Add the fresh thyme leaves and a pinch of red pepper flakes (if using) on top.
Place the flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the flatbread are crispy and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes. Slice into wedges or squares and serve warm.
