True story: I often dream about muffuletta sandwiches. They have the perfect combination of flavors. Smoky provolone. Cured meats. Fantastic olive salad. This muffuletta flatbread pizza takes all those great flavors (and more) and puts it on a bite-sized crunchy slice. Perfect for a party, perfect for any time!
The No Soggy Zone
I make my own olive salad when I have time. It’s completely amazing, and definitely one of my favorite things to make. No matter if you use homemade or store-bought, make sure you drain the salad a bit before using it. You want a bit of the great olive oil flavor, but you don’t want a soggy muffuletta flatbread pizza.
I highly recommend that you shred or grate your own cheese at home. Don’t buy the pre-shredded or pre-grated stuff. It has stuff added to it to keep it from sticking together. That ‘stuff’ affects how the cheese melts. Shred it yourself and use the good stuff.
Also try my white garlic chicken flatbread pizza. For a great side dish, try my muffuletta pasta salad.
Muffuletta Flatbread Pizza

Toppings (divide equally between the two flatbreads)

- Place flatbreads on baking sheets and bake for 2 minutes. Flip and bake for another 2 minutes to get crusts slightly crunchy. Remove and let cool slightly.

- Add remaining ingredients.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes or until cheese has melted and crust is crunchy.
- Place under broiler for 30 seconds or so if you want a little char on the toppings.
