On a sheet tray, arrange flatbreads. Place under broiler until golden and toasted, about 4 minutes. Turn over and toast until golden, 4 more minutes. Remove from oven, spread each with 2 tablespoons of the pesto. Return to oven for 1 more minute or until pesto is fragrant and set. Remove from oven and transfer to a cooling rack.
