Fig and Goat Cheese (or Blue Cheese) Flatbread

Fig and Goat Cheese (or Blue Cheese) Flatbread

2 or 3 small flatbreads, or 1 ball uncooked pizza dough
½ C Jessi’s Blueberry Balsamic Vinaigrette (see recipe)
1 pint figs, sliced
½ C crumbled bacon or pancetta
½ C goat cheese or blue cheese (or both!)
Fresh basil, sliced into ribbons

You are welcome to use pre-cooked flatbreads or naan, they work great.  At the supermarket by me, I can pick up uncooked pizza dough.  My favorite is picking up the ones that have already been flattened out in a sheeter, so you don’t have to roll it out yourself.  Up to you!

If using uncooked, cook it on a greased baking sheet in a 400 degree for 5 or 10 minutes, just until it starts to get golden.  Be sure you also grease the top of the dough.  Flip and cook an additional 5 minutes.  

Spread on the vinaigrette, place the sliced figs, and spread the crumbled cheese and bacon.   Place back in the oven for 5 minutes.  Just long enough to melt the cheese, so keep an eye on it.  

Sprinkle on the basil once out of the oven.  Slice and enjoy!!
