Pumpkin Dessert Flatbread
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my Disclosure and Privacy Policy.
After cooking with my mini chef every week for a year, I’ve come to appreciate simple recipes that can be enjoyed in short period of time. This Pumpkin Dessert Flatbread combines so many of my favorite things. The flavors of pumpkin and pumpkin spice, a sweet and crunchy topping, and warm flatbread is something special.
This is a recipe that still has plenty of steps for a mini chef, but can be completed and enjoyed in a very short period of time.
Because I wanted something fast, we opted for a handheld mixture versus or Kitchenaid Stand Mixer. Wesley loved operating the beater while I closely supervised.
The result is a tasty pumpkin cream cheese mixture that can easily be used as a dessert dip. You can always stop there, but why not kick it up a notch and enjoy it warm on some soft flatbread?
I didn’t use a recipe for inspiration, but instead combined some general ideas of previous recipes I’ve done. For example, the crumb topping reminds me very much of this Pumpkin Cream Cheese Coffee Cake, which I highly recommend.
Wesley loved these dessert pizzas and he couldn’t wait to share them with his brothers. They all loved it again that night for dessert! It tastes great warm or cold.
