Print Recipe

A quick and easy gourmet flatbread combining fresh figs, delicate prosciutto, creamy gorgonzola, and a drizzle of hot honey for a perfect balance of sweet, salty, spicy, and creamy flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 store-bought or homemade flatbread (Stonefire brand recommended)
  • 6–8 ripe medium-sized fresh figs, sliced
  • 3–4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto (San Daniele preferred)
  • 4 ounces crumbled gorgonzola cheese (dolce-style recommended)
  • Hot honey drizzle (spicy-infused honey or honey mixed with a pinch of red pepper flakes)
  • Olive oil (extra virgin, fruity) for brushing
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary, light sprinkle (optional)
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating for about 30 minutes.
  2. Lightly brush both sides of the flatbread with olive oil to help it crisp during baking.
  3. Arrange the sliced fresh figs evenly over the flatbread, leaving some space for the crust to crisp.
  4. Scatter the crumbled gorgonzola cheese evenly over the figs.
  5. Tear the prosciutto into smaller pieces and place gently on top of the cheese and figs.
  6. Sprinkle fresh thyme or rosemary if using, along with a few cracks of black pepper.
  7. Bake the flatbread on a baking sheet or pizza stone for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and cheese is bubbly. Watch closely to avoid burning the prosciutto.
  8. Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle with hot honey.
  9. Let the flatbread cool slightly for about 5 minutes before slicing to allow toppings to settle.

Notes

Pat figs dry if too wet to avoid soggy bread. Preheat pizza stone for at least 30 minutes for crispier crust. Drizzle hot honey after baking to preserve heat and flavor. Watch baking time closely to prevent burning prosciutto. Fresh herbs add a lovely aroma but are optional. Leftovers store well refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheat in oven for best texture.
