Why You’ll Love This Recipe
I love how the flavors in this flatbread play together—sweet blueberries, salty feta, and that kick from hot honey. The crispy crust holds everything together without being too heavy, and it comes together in under 20 minutes. Whether I serve it as a party starter or a weeknight bite, it feels a little fancy without any fuss.
Ingredients
(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
-
Store-bought or homemade flatbread or naan
-
Fresh blueberries
-
Feta cheese (crumbled)
-
Olive oil
-
Fresh thyme or basil (for topping)
-
Hot honey (store-bought or homemade)
-
Optional: red pepper flakes, arugula, or balsamic glaze
Directions
-
I preheat my oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
I place the flatbread on the sheet and brush it lightly with olive oil.
-
I sprinkle crumbled feta evenly across the surface, then scatter blueberries on top.
-
I bake it for about 8–10 minutes, until the flatbread is golden and the blueberries begin to burst.
-
Once out of the oven, I drizzle with hot honey and top with fresh thyme or basil.
-
For extra flavor, I sometimes add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a handful of arugula just before serving.
Servings and timing
This recipe makes 2 flatbreads or 4–6 appetizer portions. It takes about 5 minutes to prep and 10 minutes to bake, so I have it ready in just 15 minutes.
Variations
I sometimes use goat cheese instead of feta for a tangier flavor. If I want more texture, I add chopped walnuts or pecans before baking. A light drizzle of balsamic glaze at the end adds richness and depth. For a heartier version, I top it with shredded rotisserie chicken or prosciutto slices after baking.
Storage/reheating
I store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, I use the oven or air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes until the flatbread crisps up again. I avoid the microwave—it makes the crust soggy.
FAQs
Can I use frozen blueberries?
Yes, but I thaw and pat them dry first to prevent excess moisture from making the flatbread soggy.
What is hot honey, and where do I get it?
Hot honey is honey infused with chili peppers for a sweet-spicy kick. I buy it or make my own by simmering honey with red pepper flakes.
Can I grill the flatbread instead of baking?
Absolutely. I grill it over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side, just until the cheese softens and the blueberries begin to burst.
What kind of flatbread works best?
I usually use naan, pita, or store-bought flatbread. Anything sturdy enough to hold toppings and get crispy works well.
Is this flatbread served hot or cold?
I prefer serving it warm, right after baking, when the cheese is soft and the honey is nice and runny. But it still tastes great at room temperature.
Conclusion
Blueberry Feta Flatbread with Hot Honey is one of those quick dishes that looks fancy but couldn’t be easier to make. I love the contrast of creamy, salty, sweet, and spicy in every bite. It’s perfect for entertaining, casual dinners, or anytime I want to shake up my usual snack routine with something bold and fresh.
