Tips:

Air Fryer Size: If your air fryer is small, use smaller tortillas or cut the flatbread into halves to fit.
Customization: Add toppings like roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, or sun-dried tomatoes for extra Mediterranean flair.
Quick Clean-Up: Use parchment or foil in the air fryer to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
Pairing: Serve with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad for a complete meal.
