SUBSCRIBE BY EMAILEasy Philly Cheesesteak Flatbreads are ideal for any night of the week. They’re so easy to make and everyone will walk away from the table happy and satisfied.
Easy Philly Cheesesteak Flatbreads are one of my new favorite meals. So easy (even if the instructions list looks long)!
I’m sure there will be folks out there grumbling that this isn’t really a Philly cheesesteak because I use red and orange bell peppers, or because I added onion. Or maybe it’ll be because I use Provolone instead of “whiz” or used a flatbread instead of a roll.
You know what I’ve got to say about that: you do you! It’s fun to try new takes on recipes and personalize them. Experiment with your ingredients!

Easy Philly Cheesesteak Flatbreads
This recipe came to pass because my neighbor recently told me she was heading to one of the local restaurants that serves a tasty Philly cheesesteak (and awesome fries). She told me to let her know if I wanted her to bring one back for me.
I forgot to place my order, so I decided to make my own! My Easy Philly Cheesesteak Flatbreads would have tasted better with those fries, but I’m telling you These. Are. So. Good!
The flatbreads in this recipe are incredibly simple and quite easy to make. I can’t wait to make them again and add something different on top. They’re sort of like naan since they’re slightly puffy.
I can see serving the flatbreads with my favorite pizza toppings, or adding some herbs to the mix and brushing the tops with garlic butter.
Ingredients You’ll Need for the Flatbread:
- All purpose flour
- Plain Greek yogurt
- Salt
That’s it!
How to Make the Flatbread:
- After mixing the three ingredients together, form the dough into a ball of soft dough.
- Dust a clean work surface with a bit of flour.
- Divide the dough into four even pieces.
- Flatten out one piece at a time on the floured surface.
- Use your hands to form them into an oblong or oval shape, about six inches long and about half an inch thick.
- Heat a skillet with a large flat surface (with a bit of added oil).
- One at a time, add each flatbread to the skillet and cook for several minutes on each side so that it puffs up slightly with dark golden spots that appear.
What’s your take on classic foods? Are you a purist or are you flexible when it comes to recreations? If you like recreations, you might like my Copycat In-N-Out Burger Animal Style Fries. They’re so good, and seriously taste like the real deal!
Since we’re talking fast food, consider trying my Easy “Big Mac” Salad. When you dig into this salad, you might think you’re eating that classic burger. But trust me, you won’t miss the bun!
Have you ever had a classic Philly cheesesteak sandwich – in Philly? I haven’t, although it’s on my list of goodies to try.
In Philadelphia two shops compete – and have for years – for the best Philly cheesesteak. Pat’s King of Steaks (Pat’s claims its founder created this delightful and iconic sandwich in 1930) and Geno’s Steaks sit across the street from each other and include long lines out their doors.
Until you make it to Philly, make your own! My recipe for Easy Philly Cheesesteak Flatbreads is easy to make and everyone will enjoy this for sure (don’t forget the fries)!
