4.8 from 145 reviews

This Air Fryer Garlic Flatbread is a quick and delicious snack or side dish featuring crispy, golden flatbread generously coated with fragrant garlic butter, fresh parsley, and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Using the air fryer ensures a perfectly toasted texture with minimal oil and effort.

Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread

  • 2 pieces of flatbread (6-inch size each)

Garlic Butter

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Toppings

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter with the minced garlic and chopped fresh parsley. Mix thoroughly to create a fragrant garlic butter spread.
  2. Spread on Flatbread: Place the flatbread pieces on a clean surface and evenly spread the garlic butter mixture over the top surface of each flatbread, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
  3. Air Fry the Flatbread: Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (188°C). Place the buttered flatbreads in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 5-6 minutes or until the edges are crispy and golden brown, checking halfway through to avoid burning.
  4. Add Parmesan Cheese: Remove the flatbreads carefully from the air fryer and immediately sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the hot flatbreads so it melts slightly with the residual heat.
  5. Serve: Allow the flatbreads to cool for a minute, then cut into slices if desired and serve warm as a snack or side accompaniment.

Notes

  • Use day-old or store-bought flatbreads for best crispiness.
  • Adjust the amount of garlic according to your taste preference.
  • For a vegan version, substitute butter with plant-based margarine and omit Parmesan or use vegan cheese alternatives.
  • Cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer model; monitor closely to avoid overcooking.
