FAQs

What type of flatbread works best?

Store-bought naan or flatbread is ideal as it’s sturdy and heats well. Any flatbread will work as long as it holds the toppings.

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes, but it’s best to assemble everything except the honey and garnishes. Reheat and finish with toppings right before serving.

What can I substitute for burrata?

Goat cheese, ricotta, or mozzarella are excellent substitutes and offer different textures and flavor profiles.

Can I use different meats?

Yes. Salami, soppressata, or speck work well and offer a slightly different flavor.

Is tapenade necessary?

No, but it adds a savory depth. Alternatives include hummus, mustard, or even fig jam for a sweet touch.

What if I don’t like nuts?

Simply omit them or replace with seeds, crispy onions, or roasted chickpeas for texture.

Can this be made gluten-free?

Absolutely—use certified gluten-free flatbreads or gluten-free naan.

How do I serve this to a larger group?

Double or triple the ingredients and bake flatbreads on sheet pans. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Can I freeze leftovers?

Yes, but remove any fresh cheese or garnishes. Wrap and freeze for up to one month. Reheat and add toppings before serving.

What drinks pair well with this?

Sparkling wine, dry rosé, crisp white wine, or a light cider complement the creamy, salty, and sweet elements beautifully.
