Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion.

Toast Flatbreads
2
  • Place flatbreads, dimpled sides down, on a baking sheet. (For 4 servings, divide flatbreads between two baking sheets.)  Rub tops with a drizzle of olive oil; season with salt and pepper. TIP: Line the baking sheet with foil first for easy cleanup!

  • Toast on top rack until golden brown and crisp, 3-5 minutes. (For 4, toast on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)  

Cook Sausage & Onion
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sausage* and onion. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until sausage is browned and cooked through and onion is softened, 4-6 minutes.

Bake Flatbreads
4
  • Once flatbreads are toasted, remove sheet from oven. Carefully flip flatbreads dimpled sides up; evenly spread with marinara and sprinkle with mozzarella. Top with sausage and onion.

  • Return flatbreads to top rack and bake until cheese melts and flatbread edges are golden brown, 5-6 minutes. (For 4 servings, bake on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)

Finish Flatbreads
5
  • Once flatbreads are done, drizzle with as much pesto and balsamic glaze as you like.

Serve
6
  • Slice flatbreads as desired. Divide between plates and serve.
