What’s the Difference Between Flatbread Pizza and Regular Pizza?

Flatbread can be made with or without yeast.

The regular pizza dough bakes into a thick, chewy, and soft-centered bed for your favorite toppings. Flatbread pizza is just that– flatter pizza. Since it’s flatter, it doesn’t require as much yeast or rise time.

Prosciutto, fig & mozzarella:

Spread 2-3 tablespoons of fig jam on the flatbread. Top with mozzarella pearls and chunks of prosciutto torn apart with hands.

Bring a a small saucepan of balsamic vinegar to a simmer. Simmer until reduced by half and thickened, about 5 minutes. Top with fresh arugula drizzle balsamic reduction over pizza.
