What You’ll Love About Buffalo Chicken Flatbread
- 15-minute dinner
- Easy to customize
- Classic buffalo wings flavor
- Crunchy crust + cheesy toppings
- Mildly spicy + creamy blue cheese

Ingredients
- Naan bread – This is my favorite because it’s easiest and delicious, but you can also use any sort of flatbread, pita bread, traditional pizza crusts, or even tortillas. (Check my tortilla pizza post for instruction.)
- Buffalo chicken – You have some options here. I recommend making a batch of slow cooker buffalo chicken (use extras in buffalo chicken sliders), or simply toss cooked chicken breast or rotisserie chicken with buffalo sauce.
- Mozzarella cheese – Buy shredded cheese to save some time or use fresh mozzarella cheese for an extra-creamy flavor. You could also use cheddar or jack cheese if desired. Really anything that melts well will work here.
- Blue cheese – Use your favorite blue cheese – either crumbled or in a block that you can crumble yourself.
- Green onions – Thinly sliced green onions are a delicious garnish, but you could also use chives or diced red onion.
- Buffalo wing sauce – Use your favorite brand of buffalo wing hot sauce.

How to Feed Buffalo Chicken Flatbread to the Whole Family
I get it, feeding kids can be tough! But following the Division of Responsibility and knowing your job and your childโs job makes it SO much more enjoyable. Youโll be able to feed your kids any meal, which will help ensure that they are eating a variety of nutritious foods โ with plenty of play food sprinkled in.
I would recommend letting everyone make their own flatbreads, even toddlers! It’s a great meal to get them started in the kitchen and to get them involved. It will also help as they can put on items that they want and leave off other items. Serve the meal with a few items you know your kids will eat, like fruit, milk, and/or plain naan bread and butter.
