The process is straightforward: toast the flatbread, spread a thin layer of pesto, layer tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, crack an egg on top, then bake until the cheese bubbles and the egg sets. In under twenty minutes you’ll have a restaurant‑quality flatbread that looks as good as it tastes.
Why You'll Love This Recipe
Bright, Fresh Flavors: Sun‑ripe tomatoes, fragrant basil, and creamy mozzarella combine for a taste that feels like a summer garden on a plate, perfect for any brunch table.
Speedy Preparation: With a prep time of just fifteen minutes and a quick bake, this flatbread fits seamlessly into busy mornings without sacrificing quality.

Preparing the Flatbread Base
Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) and placing a baking sheet inside to heat. While the sheet warms, brush each flatbread lightly on both sides with 2 tablespoons extra‑virgin olive oil. This ensures a golden, crunchy crust and prevents sogginess once the toppings are added.
