Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Heat 2 tbsp unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted. Add 2 thinly sliced medium apples and 2 tbsp brown sugar, sauté for 5-7 minutes until apples are soft and caramelized, stirring occasionally.
  2. Step 2: Place 1 large (12-inch) flatbread crust on a baking sheet. Brush with 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Step 3: Evenly distribute caramelized apples over the flatbread, then scatter 4 oz crumbled goat cheese on top.
  4. Step 4: Bake flatbread in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until crust edges are golden and cheese is slightly melted.
  5. Step 5: Remove flatbread and sprinkle 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme leaves over the top. Slice and serve warm as an appetizer or light meal.
