Ingredients
  

For the Naan Pizza:
  • 4 pieces Naan Bread fresh from bakery or grocery store
  • 1 cup Pizza Sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese fresh or pre-shredded
Optional Toppings:
  • Sliced Olives
  • Chopped Bell Peppers
  • Sliced Mushrooms
  • Pepperoni or turkey pepperoni for a lighter option

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Oven
  • Pizza Cutter

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Preheat the Oven
    Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure your naan pizza cooks evenly and gets that desirable crispy texture.
  2. Step 2: Prepare the Baking Sheet
    Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. This will make for an easy cleanup and prevent the naan from sticking.
  3. Step 3: Assemble the Naan
    Place the naan bread on the prepared baking sheet. Spread about ¼ cup of pizza sauce on each piece of naan, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Step 4: Add Cheese
    Sprinkle ¼ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce on each naan. Feel free to be generous here; cheese is always a crowd-pleaser!
  5. Step 5: Add Your Toppings
    Now comes the fun part! Add your desired toppings. Sliced olives, chopped bell peppers, sliced mushrooms, and pepperoni are all great choices. Customize each naan to your liking!
  6. Step 6: Bake to Perfection
    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the edges of the naan are slightly crispy.
  7. Step 7: Slice and Serve
    Once baked, remove the naan pizzas from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Slice them into quarters using a pizza cutter and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious naan pizza!

Notes

  • Using high-quality pizza sauce and fresh cheese can enhance flavor.
  • Try pesto or BBQ sauce instead of traditional pizza sauce.
  • Don’t overload toppings to avoid sogginess.
  • Sprinkle Italian herbs or red pepper flakes before serving for extra flavor.
