When in a hurry, I like to use store-bought naan to make a super quick meal! This Labneh Flatbread is topped with labneh (obviously), olives, cherry tomatoes, a little shake of zaatar seasoning, olive oil and fresh mint for some extra flavor.
Labneh flatbread makes for a perfect quick breakfast, appetizer, side dish or a light dinner! Also great for kids lunch boxes too!
What is Labneh?
Labneh is a tangy, thick, and creamy textured spreadable yogurt cheese dip, made by straining whole milk yogurt until it loses most if its liquid. The longer you strain it, the thicker it will get, usually in the fridge overnight. My fridge is always stocked with homemade Labneh. Here is the full recipe on how to make Labneh.
TO MAKE THIS LABNEH FLATBREAD YOU WILL NEED:
- Naan flatbread

- Fresh mint leaves

HOW TO MAKE LABNEH FLATBREAD:
