Grilled flatbreads are much easier than making pizza and super versatile! They're fluffy, chewy, and perfect for summertime hosting. Today, we're making Sourdough Grilled Flatbreads with Burrata, Hot Honey, & Pesto for an easy backyard bbq with the family!
The Summer grilling season is right around the corner, or if you live in warmer states, it's a year round pleasure! I love grilling during the warmer months because it doesn't heat up the kitchen, keeps your electricity bill a little lower, and provides ample opportunity for family and friend gatherings without a huge mess.
I recently got the Masterbuilt Gravity Series 800 that's a griddle, grill, AND smoker ... to say I'm excited for this grilling season ahead would be an UNDERSTATEMENT. I have so many fun recipes coming up to share with you all from sourdough pizzas, to cheeseburger boards for July Fourth, and smoked burnt ends. Stay tuned each week for something new!
In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Add the salt, garlic powder, olive oil, and sourdough. Mix just until combined, then add the flour. Mix until a shaggy dough, then turn out on a clean surface to knead 1-2 minutes, until a smooth and pliable dough.
Place back into the bowl and cover. Place in a warm environment to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Roll out the flatbread to ¼” thick oval with a rolling pin.
Heat up your grill to 500F – 550F.
Toss the peaches in olive oil to grill directly on the racks 2-3 minutes on each side.
Brush the dough with olive oil on both sides, then place on the hot grill racks. Close the grill lid to cook 2 minutes, until slightly charred on the bottom, then flip to cook 2-3 more minutes. The dough should have the grill lines and be puffed up.
Can you Make Grilled Flatbread in Advance?
Yes, you have a few different ways to make the sourdough grilled flatbread in advance.
First, you can prep the dough the night before by replacing the instant yeast with active dry yeast and storing in the fridge after rising an hour at room temperature.
Second, you could fully make the grilled flatbread the day before to reheat when ready to serve in the oven at 350F for 8-10 minutes.
Third, you can go FULLY sourdough by skipping the yeast and adding 1/2 cup active sourdough starter and letting in rise in a warm environment overnight (at least 8 hours).

Hello! I can’t wait to make this today for Father’s Day. Do I need to use the instant yeast? Or can the sourdough starter do the trick on its own?

This looks amazing and I can’t wait to try it! How would I make it with just instant yeast and no sourdough starter?

Hi Amanda! The instant yeast is necessary if making same day since the sourdough needs 8-12 hours to help the dough naturally rise :)

Keep the instant yeast and just remove 1/4 cup flour if leaving out the sourdough starter! Hope you enjoy!!
