Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the flatbreads on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Dice the red bell pepper and zucchini into small bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced vegetables, cooked chickpeas, olive oil, ground cumin, ground cinnamon, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the vegetables and chickpeas are evenly coated with the spices.
Spread the spiced vegetable mixture onto a separate baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables are roasting, spread approximately 3 tablespoons of hummus on each flatbread, covering the surface evenly.
Once the vegetables are done, remove them from the oven and distribute them evenly across the hummus-covered flatbreads.
Return the assembled flatbreads to the oven and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes, just to warm them through.
Remove the flatbreads from the oven and drizzle with a small amount of lemon juice for brightness.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and, if desired, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top.
Cut the flatbreads into slices or leave whole, then serve immediately. Enjoy your flavorful Moroccan flatbread pizzas!
