1. Naan
Homemade naan is quick and easy to make and always tastes delicious. The soft, buttery texture and flavor of this side dish make it a favorite flatbread recipe for many!
While traditional naan-making methods involve baking in those scalding hot Tandoor ovens, you can make your own naan at home with just a grill or skillet and still get a delicious naan!
2. Garlic Pizza
Calling all garlic lovers! This pizza features a heavy helping of roasted garlic and ooey, gooey melted cheese.
But wait, it gets better. This pizza features not 1 but 4 different cheeses. It's simple but so indulgent and guaranteed to be a hit!
3. Garlic Herb Focaccia Bread
Some people refer to focaccia as "pizza bianca," which translates to "white pizza" because of its similarity to pizza in style and texture.
Focaccia bread is used as a side dish, sandwich bread, and more! Garnish with salt and fresh herbs for an extra boost of flavor.
4. Margherita Sheet Pan Pizza
The simplicity of this pizza is the best part. There is no need to toss your dough in the air or spend valuable time shaping it.
With this pizza, you can form the dough into a sheet pan and call it a day. It has no shortage of flavor with its tangy sauce, fresh basil, and huge chunks of mozzarella.
5. Keto Flatbread
This 3-ingredient flatbread is low-carb and guilt-free! Cheese is the main ingredient, so it isn't soft and fluffy like classic flatbread, but can be used in the same way!
Use it as a wrap or the base for pizzas. You can pretty much sub it out for any dish that calls for a side of flatbread!
6. Caprese Flatbread
All the flavors of a delicious caprese salad on top of thin, fluffy bread. What's not to love?
Some hearty slices of mozzarella, juicy tomatoes, fresh basil, and a drizzle of balsamic are all it takes to make this addicting flatbread everyone will enjoy.
7. Homemade Flatbread
This is my go-to recipe for homemade flatbread, and it never disappoints! It's incredibly simple and works well for dunking, dipping, wrapping, or scooping!
After it rises, you can quickly cook it right on your stovetop. This is a great quick bread for beginning bakers!
8. Skillet Flatbread (No Yeast)
This is a quick and easy flatbread recipe that yields delicious results every time. All you need is a few simple ingredients!
As an added bonus, this recipe does not require the use of yeast. Serve it as a side dish, for dipping in soups and dips, or for wraps or sandwiches.
9. Tortilla Pizza
A tortilla is the flattest bread of them all! Tortillas make a great, crispy base that's perfect for loading up your favorite pizza toppings.
The best thing about tortilla pizzas is that they are relatively guilt-free. Make your own tortillas, or use your favorite brand. That way, you can choose if you need keto or low-carb options!

10. Mediterranean Flatbread
Mediterranean flatbread is similar to pizza but topped with tomatoes, roasted peppers, and olives. Feta cheese also makes a great addition!
For extra protein, add some thinly sliced prosciutto or other cured meat. It's a delicious appetizer or light lunch that's simple, quick, and easy to make!
11. Pupusa
Pupusas are fluffy stuffed corn cakes from El Salvador made from cornmeal or rice flour mixed with water! Refried beans, shredded pork, and cheese are all common fillings.
12. Frybread
This type of bread is made by flattening the dough and frying it in oil, shortening, or lard before serving it.
Frybread can be eaten plain or with a variety of toppings, including honey, jam, and meat, and is typically made with basic ingredients like wheat flour, sugar, salt, and fat. It's also possible to make taco-like meals out of frybread.
13. Chicken Shawarma Wrap
There's a good reason why this quick and healthy dish is a crowd-pleaser! It's got a unique blend of flavors that really sets it apart.
Serve it using pita pockets with tahini sauce and an easy salad for a delicious dinner.
14. Spinach Artichoke Flatbread
Spinach artichoke flatbread features an array of mouthwatering flavors and is baked to a golden crisp. Using flatbread as an appetizer or light meal is an excellent option.
This crispy and chewy spinach artichoke flatbread is quick, easy, and absolutely irresistible.
15. Classic Gyros
This specialty sandwich is the perfect way to satisfy your cravings for Mediterranean food.
It is both impressive and tasty while also being simple enough to whip up on the fly. Don't forget the tzatziki sauce!
16. Pita
A pita is a form of flatbread that is soft and slightly chewy and often has a pocket inside. Pita bread can be eaten as-is or dipped in olive oil or hummus, depending on your preference.
Or, you can stuff the pocket with various fillings and serve it toasted or baked as a sandwich.
17. Roti
Roti is a type of flatbread made with whole wheat flour. It's a deceptively simple but delicious bread that goes well with various other dishes.
Some people season it with salt, while others season it with oil. Serve it with curry or cooked vegetables for a classic Indian meal!
18. Lavash
Lavash bread is a simple dish to prepare that requires only a few ingredients. It is a deliciously soft and simply irresistible delight.
Lavash is a traditional Middle Eastern bread that has grown in popularity internationally. Not to mention, it can be folded to make sandwiches and wraps, too!
19. Flatbread French Toast Rollups
Yes, it's as good as it sounds. The texture is a combination of a crepe and French toast.
Essentially, you use your thin French toast to make delicious pinwheels filled with your favorite French toast toppings. I often opt for freshly sliced strawberries and some sweetened cream cheese.
20. Khachapuri
Khachapuri is a Georgian dish that consists of stuffed bread with cheese. They are made by encasing a large amount of cheese in a round dough and baking it until it is melted and bubbling.
The center of the bread is stuffed with a mixture of cheese, eggs, and other ingredients. It's an absolutely divine and filling dish that everyone will enjoy.
21. Smoked Salmon Breakfast Flatbread
Forget a bagel; smoked salmon tastes even better when topping some fluffy flatbread! You could add a smear of cream cheese or forgo it completely.
Some everything bagel seasoning and thinly sliced red onion will give you all the flavor you need! It makes a wonderful breakfast because it's just the right amount of food to keep you full until lunch.
22. Flatbrød
There's no way we'd get all the way through this without mentioning Flatbrod or lefse! My Norwegian Grandmas would disown me if they'd been left out!
This easy 4-5 ingredient flatbread is a staple bread that can be topped with both sweet and savory toppings (like lefse). Fresh herbs, cheese, and salty little fish are divine toppings!
23. Mexican Street Corn Flatbread
If you love elotes like I love elotes, this one's for you. Mexican street corn is jam-packed with flavor on its own, and it's made even better by putting it on top of a crisp flatbread.
Creamy mayo and sour cream sauce complements the tangy lime and chipotle chili powder. The corn's sweetness and the bread's mild flavor tie it all together perfectly.
24. Rosemary Sea Salt Flatbread
Complexity isn't always the best. This simple rosemary sea salt flatbread makes a great starter for any meal.
It is even better to have a saucy main course so you can soak up the sauce to your heart's content. The bread is golden and crisp with just a hint of rosemary and goes well with almost anything!

📖 Recipe Card
Best Flatbread Recipes: Easy Tortilla Pizza (+24 More Great Recipes To Make!)
Ingredients
- 2 flour tortillas (8-10" burrito-sized tortillas)
- ½ cup pizza sauce (or marinara- divided into 2 portions)
- ½ cup mozzarella (shredded- divided into 2 portions)
- ¼ cup Parmesan (shredded- divided into 2 portions)
- 24 slices pepperoni (or more depending on the size of your pepperoni- divided into 2 portions)
- garlic salt (optional, to taste)
(Note: 2x or 3x only changes the ingredient list)
Instructions
- First, preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) with a large baking sheet on the center rack. While it preheats, place the two tortillas out on a clean work surface and spread ¼ cup pizza sauce evenly on each tortilla.
- Sprinkle half of the mozzarella, about ¼ cup, on each tortilla. Repeat with the grated Parmesan cheese then top with pepperoni slices (or any of your favorite toppings). If using the optional garlic salt, sprinkle it over everything to your preference.
- Carefully place the assembled tortilla pizzas onto the heated baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes. Once the cheese is melted and your tortilla is crisped remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for a minute or two. Slice and serve.
Notes
- Gordita style tortillas are sturdier and can be placed directly onto your oven racks.
- To make this low-carb, simply use keto, low-carb, or "carb smart" tortillas depending on your needs.
