Before You Bake

Can I make these Santorini Balsamic Flatbreads ahead of time? It’s best served fresh, but you can prep the toppings and hummus spread in advance. Assemble and bake right before serving for the best texture.

Can I swap the chicken for something else?
Definitely. Prosciutto, roasted veggies, or even chickpeas make great substitutes depending on whether you want more protein or a vegetarian option.
