Ingredients
  

1 large flatbread (store-bought or homemade)

2 ripe peaches, sliced thinly

4 oz goat cheese, crumbled

1 cup fresh arugula

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic glaze

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: ¼ cup walnuts, chopped (for added crunch)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for crisping the flatbread.

    Prepare the Flatbread: Lay the flatbread flat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly drizzle olive oil over the top, then sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper, ensuring the surface is evenly seasoned.

      Layer the Ingredients: Begin layering by evenly covering the flatbread with the thinly sliced peaches. Follow this by generously sprinkling the crumbled goat cheese over the peaches. Finally, add the fresh thyme leaves, distributing them evenly for maximized flavor.

        Bake: Carefully place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, watching closely until the edges of the flatbread are crisp and lightly golden, and the goat cheese starts to soften and brown slightly.

          Add the Arugula: As soon as the flatbread is done baking, remove it from the oven and quickly top it with a generous handful of fresh arugula. For an additional crunch and rich flavor, sprinkle the optional chopped walnuts over the top.

            Drizzle and Serve: To finish, drizzle the balsamic glaze artistically over the flatbread, enhancing the sweet and tangy flavors. Slice the flatbread into desired pieces for easy serving.

              Enjoy: Indulge in your delightful Peach & Goat Cheese Flatbread, reveling in the delicious combination of sweet peaches, creamy goat cheese, and the peppery freshness of arugula!
