Homemade Margherita Flatbread Pizza Recipe

Last Updated on October 7, 2026 by Mr. B

This margherita flatbread pizza is one of my favorite pizza recipes to make. First I make a homemade flatbread dough. This dough is so versatile and handy to have in your recipe arsenal. You can put it on the stove top in a grill pan, in the oven on a baking sheet or over an open fire of a grill. Again, versatility is the key to this bread and probably one of my favorite reasons to use flatbread as a pizza crust.

Enjoy this delicious, quick and easy pizza recipe made with mozzarella cheese, fresh tomatoes and parsley! If you have your own pizza topping favorites, substitute those in!

An easy to make pizza recipe, made from scratch! I hope you give this recipe a try!
