- 1 Recipe Greek Yogurt Bun Dough (without cheese) (find in our Easy Cheesy Greek Yogurt Buns recipe)
- 1 Recipe White Bean Pesto Dip (find in our White Bean Pesto Dip recipe)
- 1 tbsp oil for frying
- Tomatoes and Peppers sliced for decoration Get creative with any vegetable or toppings you have on hand
Make the dough from Easy Cheesy Greek Yogurt Buns recipe but omit the cheese. Once dough is formed, cut dough into 3-4 pieces.
On a floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll out sections of the dough to form a thin layer like a tortilla, about <1 cm thickness.
Using a floured knife, cut dough into the shape of a tree. Combine leftover dough scraps then re-roll to form the remaining trees. Repeat until you have 6.
Heat an oiled frying pan to low-medium. Once warm, add the tortilla/flatbread (depending on pan size, you may be able to cook multiple at once).
Cook for 3- 5 minutes per side, depending on your tortilla's thickness and size. You want it nice and toasty brown on the outside, and the middle will remain soft and pillowy!
Now onto the White Bean Pesto Dip! Make the dip according to instructions. For a quicker alternative, combine store-bought hummus with spinach in a food processor to turn it green.
Once flatbread is cooked and cooled, spread green dip to resemble a Christmas tree. Invite your child to decorate their tree with different vegetables and toppings of choice
Take a bite and enjoy :)
- Make the white bean dip ahead of time for ease of preparation or while flatbreads are cooling.
- Kid Cooking Tips: depending on the age of your child, have your child help outline the shape of the tree with a toothpick then you cut it out or let them create their own design. For younger children, include them more in the tree decorating for ease of mess.
- This recipe makes around 6 trees with a little leftover. Use leftover dough to create a smaller round flatbread or tortilla.
