Print Recipe

A quick and easy flatbread featuring ripe fresh figs, salty prosciutto, creamy Gorgonzola Dolce, and a drizzle of honey for a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ball of pizza dough (about 12 oz / 340g), store-bought or homemade
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing the dough)
  • Flour for dusting (all-purpose or bread flour)
  • 6–8 fresh figs, sliced thin
  • 4 oz (115g) prosciutto, thinly sliced
  • 3 oz (85g) Gorgonzola Dolce cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary leaves, chopped (optional)
  • 2 tbsp honey (preferably a mild, floral variety like clover or acacia)
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling after baking

Instructions

  1. Preheat your pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to 475°F (245°C) and let it heat for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a roughly 12×8 inch (30×20 cm) rectangle or oval, about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick. Let rest 5 minutes if dough resists stretching.
  3. Brush the dough surface lightly with olive oil using a pastry brush.
  4. Carefully transfer the dough to the hot pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for 6-8 minutes until edges puff and turn golden but dough is not fully cooked.
  5. Remove flatbread from oven and evenly distribute crumbled Gorgonzola, sliced figs, and torn prosciutto pieces. Sprinkle chopped rosemary if using.
  6. Return flatbread to oven and bake for another 6-8 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly and crust is golden and crisp.
  7. Remove from oven and immediately drizzle honey over the flatbread. Add freshly cracked black pepper and flaky sea salt to taste.
  8. Let flatbread rest for 3-5 minutes before slicing into rectangular pieces and serving warm.

Notes

Preheat the baking surface thoroughly for a crispy crust. Avoid overloading toppings to prevent sogginess. Use ripe but firm figs for best texture. Drizzle honey after baking to keep flatbread crisp. Watch cheese closely during final bake to avoid bitterness. Dough resting helps if it shrinks back while rolling.
