Elegant Smoked Salmon and Dill Flatbread

1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly brush both sides of the flatbreads with olive oil and place them directly on a baking sheet or pizza stone.

2.Bake the flatbreads for 6 to 8 minutes, or until they are heated through and the edges are crisp and lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.

3.While the flatbreads are baking, prepare the creamy spread. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream (or crème fraîche), lemon zest, black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until the spread is smooth and well combined.

4.Once the flatbreads are cool enough to handle but still warm, divide the cream cheese mixture evenly between the two flatbreads. Spread the mixture in a thin, even layer, leaving a small border around the edge.

5.Arrange the smoked salmon slices artfully over the cream cheese base. The salmon should cover most of the surface.

6.Scatter the thinly sliced red onion and drained capers evenly over the salmon.

7.Drizzle the entire flatbread lightly with fresh lemon juice. Finally, garnish generously with the fresh chopped dill.

8.Slice the flatbread into 6 to 8 pieces using a pizza cutter and serve immediately as an elegant appetizer or light lunch.
