A quick and easy flatbread appetizer combining sweet fig jam, creamy brie, salty prosciutto, and fresh peppery arugula, perfect for entertaining or a fancy snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 store-bought or homemade flatbread (about 1012 inches diameter)
  • Olive oil, for brushing (extra virgin preferred)
  • 4 oz Brie cheese, sliced or torn into pieces
  • 3 tbsp fig jam or preserves
  • 2 tbsp raw honey
  • 4 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 1 cup fresh arugula, washed and dried
  • Cracked black pepper, to taste (optional)
  • Chopped toasted walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.
  2. Place the flatbread on a parchment-lined baking sheet or preheated pizza stone. Lightly brush the surface with olive oil.
  3. Spread the fig jam evenly over the flatbread, leaving about a ½-inch border around the edges.
  4. Tear or slice the brie into small pieces and scatter evenly over the fig jam layer.
  5. Bake the flatbread for 8-10 minutes until the brie softens and bubbles and the edges turn golden and crisp.
  6. Remove from the oven and immediately arrange the prosciutto slices on top.
  7. Pile fresh arugula generously over the flatbread.
  8. Drizzle raw honey over everything.
  9. Optionally, add cracked black pepper and sprinkle chopped toasted nuts.
  10. Slice with a pizza cutter and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Use room temperature brie for even melting. Add honey after baking to preserve its floral notes. For gluten-free, use cauliflower crust or almond flour flatbread. Prosciutto should be added after baking to keep its delicate texture. Can prepare up to step 4 and refrigerate for up to 4 hours before baking.
