Ingredients

2 Naan Flatbreads
4 oz. Garlic and Herb Goat Cheese
2 small pears thinly sliced
2 slices of cooked bacon chopped
Balsamic reduction for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Place the two Naan Flatbreads on a baking sheet. Divide the garlic and herb goat cheese in half and spread equally on the two flatbreads. Thinly slice one pear and place on one flatbread, repeat with the other flatbread. Sprinkle chopped bacon on top and bake for 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven once the flatbreads are golden in color. Cut with a pizza wheel or scissors into pieces. Drizzle with balsamic reduction and serve immediately.

Notes

Crisp the Flatbread: For an extra-crispy base, preheat the flatbread in the oven for a few minutes before adding the toppings.
Perfect Slices: Use a mandoline to get uniformly thin slices for even cooking and a more delicate texture.
Warm Goat Cheese for Easy Spreading: Slightly warm the goat cheese in the microwave for 10 seconds to make it easier to spread.
Try a Homemade Balsamic Reduction: If you don’t have balsamic reduction on hand, make your own by simmering balsamic vinegar until it thickens slightly.
Experiment with Herbs: Fresh thyme or rosemary sprinkled on top can add a lovely herbal note to the flatbread.
