Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and baking powder.
Add olive oil, water, garlic powder, and dried oregano to the flour mixture and stir until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it gently for about 2 minutes until smooth.
Divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll each part into a thin circle or oval, about 1/4 inch thick.
Place the flatbread bases onto the prepared baking sheet.
Spread a thin layer of low sodium tomato sauce evenly over each flatbread.
Sprinkle shredded low sodium mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Top with sliced cherry tomatoes, baby spinach leaves, and thinly sliced red onion.
Sprinkle ground black pepper over the toppings.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and edges are crispy.
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Slice the flatbreads and serve immediately.
