When you’re craving pizza but need an easy and quick dinner, make one of these homemade flatbread pizza recipes! Use store-bought or homemade naan flatbread, add your toppings, and bake. In 15-minutes you will have a delicious meal or appetizer ready to devour.
There truly might not be anything better than a quick, easy dinner recipe that checks all the boxes after a long day. This is precisely why I am obsessed with making flatbread pizzas. The obsession began many moons ago when I started using store-bought naan as the base for the pizza (hello, so easy). Throughout the years I’ve mixed in my own flatbread dough recipe to take it up a notch. And when I’m really on top of my game, I keep some in the freezer for when I need a quick fix.
Whichever route you take for the pizza is gonna be delicious, because, at the end of the day, you’ll have a quick, easy, 15-minute meal (or appetizer!) for yourself, or your family. Make one, make a dozen, there’s no limit because we’re simply assembling, and baking!
Each one of these recipes is also vegetarian, but meat-eaters never fear, you won’t be missing out on a thing! If you must, you can always add in some pepperoni or sausage as desired. Looking for gluten-free? You can swap in a gluten-free flatbread for the base! The beauty of customizing your own pizza, friends. Now, let’s see what flatbreads we have in store!

Flatbread Pizza Recipes: Grilled Corn, Burrata, and Pesto Flatbread
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 naan flatbreads or homemade flatbread
- 1/4 cup basil pesto divided
- 1-2 Roma tomatoes sliced
- 1 ear of corn-on-the-cob
- 4 oz. ball of burrata divided
- 1 small shallot thinly sliced
- Basil for garnish
- Flakey sea salt for garnish
- Red pepper flakes and/or black pepper for garnish
Instructions
Grill or Grill Pan Instructions:
- Heat grill/grill pan over medium heat. Lightly brush olive oil (or another oil of choice) across the ear of corn. Place the cob on the heated grill pan and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, rotating it as the corn becomes slightly charred on each side. Remove and let cool slightly. Slice off kernels.
- Lightly brush the naan breads with olive oil on each side. Place it face down on the grill, flipping when grill marks appear, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Once flipped (with top side facing up), spread on the pesto, add the tomato slices, corn kernels, burrata, and the shallot evenly distributed between the two pizzas.
- Cover and let cook for 4-6 minutes until burrata is melted. Garnish with basil, flakey salt, and red pepper flakes as desired.
Oven Instructions:
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly brush olive oil (or another oil of choice) across the ear of corn. Place the cob on the heated grill pan cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, rotating it as the corn becomes slightly charred on each side. Remove and let cool slightly. Slice off kernels. If you don't have a grill pan either, you can skip this step and just slice the kernels off of the ear of corn.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (you can do this with a pizza stone inside if desired).
- Take your naan flatbreads and spread pesto evenly between the two. Add the tomato slices, corn kernels, burrata, and the shallot evenly distributed between the two pizzas.
- Place the pizzas on a baking sheet or a heated pizza stone and bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are golden brown and the cheese has melted. Garnish with basil, flakey salt, and red pepper flakes as desired.
