Artichoke, Spinach, and Prosciutto Flatbreads with Spicy Honey

These vibrant artichoke, spinach, and prosciutto flatbreads offer a sophisticated twist on a homemade pizza. This high-protein dish combines the earthy flavours of artichoke hearts and nutrient-dense spinach with the salty richness of cured Italian ham. A finishing drizzle of spicy chilli honey cuts through the savoury Parmesan to provide a modern, sweet-heat contrast that elevates the entire meal. It is a fantastic option for a quick midweek dinner or a relaxed weekend lunch with friends.

Using shop-bought pizza dough makes this recipe incredibly accessible, while the fresh lemon zest and garlic ensure a bright, punchy flavour profile. Because it is packed with leafy greens and lean protein, it is a satisfying choice for those looking for a balanced yet comforting meal. Serve these golden wedges immediately from the oven for the perfect combination of a crisp base and melty toppings.

Ingredients for Artichoke, Spinach, and Prosciutto Flatbreads with Spicy Honey

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

  • 1 (275g) package frozen spinach, thawed

  • 1 (250g) package frozen artichoke hearts, thawed

  • Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest

  • Cornmeal (for pans)

  • 450g frozen pizza dough, thawed

  • Plain flour (for surface)

  • 230g Parmesan cheese, grated on the large holes of a box grater (about 475ml ), divided

  • 3 tablespoons honey

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes

  • 60g thinly sliced prosciutto

Position racks in middle and upper third of oven and preheat to 475ºF.

Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium. Add garlic and parsley and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add spinach and artichokes, toss to coat, and cook, covered, until artichokes are tender, 10–12 minutes. Uncover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until juices thicken, about 2 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoons salt and a pinch of black pepper. Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest.

Sprinkle 2 rimless baking sheets with cornmeal. Roll out half of the dough on floured surface to a 12x7" oval. Transfer to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.

Sprinkle each round with 80g Parmesan, then top evenly with artichoke and spinach mixture. Top with remaining 150g Parmesan and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until crust is golden brown, 20–22 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine honey and red pepper flakes in a small bowl.

Remove flatbreads from oven. Top with prosciutto and drizzle with spicy honey. Cut flatbreads into wedges and serve.
