Description
Brie & Cranberry Flatbreads are the perfect blend of creamy, sweet, and crunchy elements, making them an absolute treat for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 naan or flatbreads
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 5 oz brie cheese, sliced thin
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 3 tbsp sliced almonds
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
- To kick off this delightful dish, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Preheating is a key stage as it ensures your flatbreads will cook evenly and achieve that wonderful crispy texture.
- Next, arrange the naan or flatbreads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. To enhance the flavors of your flatbreads, brush each one generously with olive oil. This not only adds flavor but also helps achieve a beautifully golden and crispy crust while baking.
- Now comes the exciting part! Layer the sliced brie cheese evenly across the top of each flatbread, ensuring every bite will contain that gooey, melty goodness. After that, sprinkle a generous amount of dried cranberries, sliced almonds, and fresh thyme. The cranberries add a perfect fruity tang, while almonds contribute a delightful crunch to the overall texture.
- Place the prepared flatbreads in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Keep a close eye on them! You’re looking for the brie to become bubbly and melted, and the almonds to turn a gorgeous golden brown, while the edges of the flatbread turn crispy. The rich aroma will fill your kitchen, tantalizing your taste buds.
- Once out of the oven, finish your beautiful flatbreads by drizzling a touch of honey or maple syrup across the top if desired. This adds a sweet contrast to the savory elements of the dish.
Notes
Be careful not to overbake; the almonds should be golden, not burned.
