Ingredients
  

  • 1 ear corn
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 small zucchini chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 flatbreads or naan about 5 × 10 inches each
  • 6 ounces ricotta cheese
  • 2 ounces goat cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Balsamic glaze optional

Instructions
 

  • Trim the silk end from the corn, leaving the husk intact.
  • Place the corn in the oven and preheat to 400°F (200°C).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the cherry tomatoes and zucchini onto the baking sheet.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder and salt. Toss until evenly coated.
  • Once the oven reaches temperature, place the baking sheet alongside the corn.
  • Roast for 12–15 minutes until the zucchini is tender and the tomatoes begin releasing their juices.
  • Remove the vegetables and allow the corn to cool slightly.
  • Peel back the husk and slice the kernels from the cob.
  • Spread ricotta evenly over both flatbreads.
  • Top with roasted corn, zucchini, and tomatoes.
  • Sprinkle evenly with goat cheese.
  • Bake the Summer Vegetable Flatbread directly on the oven rack for 8–10 minutes until crispy.
  • Season with black pepper and additional salt if desired.
  • Garnish with fresh basil and drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.

Notes

  • Burrata can replace ricotta for a richer texture.
  • Feta makes an excellent substitute for goat cheese.
  • Finish with crushed red pepper flakes for gentle heat.
  • Pair with a crisp green salad or soup for a complete meal.
