This Caramelized Onion & Apple Flatbread is an easy, crowd-pleasing appetizer with the perfect balance of sweet and savory. Melty cheese, golden onions, and crisp apple slices sit on warm flatbread for a bite that feels elevated but simple. Serve it at your next wine night, dinner party, or casual hangout—it always sure to impress.
Do I need to peel the apple?
Nope! Leave the peel on for color, texture, and less prep. Just slice it thinly so it softens nicely in the oven.
Can I caramelize the onions ahead of time?
Yes—caramelized onions store well in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently before using if you’d like them warm.
What kind of flatbread works best?
Naan or store-bought flatbreads with a sturdy, chewy texture hold up well under the toppings and bake to crispy perfection.

Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes! Goat cheese, brie, or a white cheddar all work well depending on your flavor preference.
Is this flatbread good at room temperature?
Definitely. It’s great served warm, but it also holds up well as a room-temp appetizer.
Can I make this ahead for a party?
You can prep all the ingredients ahead, then assemble and bake just before serving to keep the flatbread crisp.
What wine pairs well with this flatbread?
Try a chilled white like Sauvignon Blanc or a light Pinot Noir to balance the sweet and savory notes.
How should I slice it for serving?
Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to slice into strips or squares—it’s easy to portion and perfect for sharing.
Plan a laid-back wine night on the patio with your favorite people. Pour a glass of something crisp, slice up this sweet and savory flatbread, and fill the evening with music, laughter, and a few good stories. It’s the kind of simple evening that makes the days a little lighter.
