Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (250g)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¾ cups warm water (175 ml)
For the toppings:
- ¾-1 cup pizza sauce (200 ml)
- ½ cup vegan cheese (120g) e.g. greek-style
- pizza toppings of your choice
- salt & pepper to taste
- fresh basil leaves chopped
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Stir in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until the mixture becomes crumbly. Gradually pour in the warm water and mix until a dough forms.
- On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Put the dough in a clean bowl and cover it with a damp cloth. Let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
- While the dough is resting, preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Divide the dough into two equal portions. Roll each portion into a thin round.
- Place the rounds on a non-stick sheet. Pre-bake them in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes, until they are lightly browned.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly onto the flatbreads. Add pizza toppings of your choice and sprinkle crumbled vegan cheese on top.
- Air fry the pizzas for 4-5 minutes, or until the crust is crispy and golden.
- Garnish the pizzas with fresh basil leaves. Season them with salt and pepper to taste. Slice and serve immediately.
Notes
- Serving: Serve your flatbread pizza fresh and hot right out of the air fryer. Cut it into slices for easy eating, and garnish with a sprinkle of fresh basil leaves for an extra pop of flavor. You can also enjoy it with a side of fresh salad or some crispy fries for a complete meal.
- Storing and Reheating Leftovers: Place any leftover slices in an airtight container to keep them fresh. These can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. When you are ready to enjoy your leftover pizza, reheating them properly can help maintain the crispy crust and delicious toppings.
- Making Ahead: The dough for the flatbread can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just let it come to room temperature before rolling it out.
- Gluten-Free Option: You can easily make this recipe gluten-free by substituting the plain flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- Customizing Toppings: This flatbread pizza recipe is highly customizable. Feel free to experiment with different toppings based on your preference. Just keep in mind that certain toppings might increase the cooking time.
- Cooking Without an Air Fryer: Don't have an air fryer? No problem! You can also bake the flatbread pizza in an oven. Just adjust the cooking times and temperature as needed.
