1. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
2. Place one piadina flatbread in the skillet and heat for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly golden and pliable. Repeat with the second flatbread and set aside.
3. While the flatbreads are warming, rinse and slice the figs into thin wedges.
4. Crumble the blue cheese into small pieces and set aside.
5. Roughly chop the walnuts and toast them in the skillet for 2 minutes over medium heat. Be careful not to burn them, then transfer the toasted walnuts to a small bowl.
6. Assemble each piadina by layering arugula on one half of the flatbread, followed by the sliced figs, crumbled blue cheese, and prosciutto slices.
7. Sprinkle the toasted walnuts over the toppings and lightly drizzle with honey and balsamic glaze.
8. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.
9. Fold the other half of the flatbread over the toppings to create a half-moon shape.
10. Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
