Naan Pizza is the ultimate quick and easy dinner! Ready in just 15 minutes, it’s made by topping naan bread with pizza sauce, cheese, and your favorite toppings—perfect for busy weeknights or fun customizable meals.
Ingredients
- 2 naan breads (about 8-inches each) or 4 mini naan breads
- 1/2 cup prepared pizza sauce or pesto
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or fresh mozzarella slices)
- 2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
- Pinch kosher salt or flaky sea salt
- Pinch red pepper flakes
- 8 fresh basil leaves
Instructions
- Place a rack in the upper third of the oven (about 6 inches from the top). Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Carefully place the naan directly on the oven grate. Bake for 2 minutes, then flip and bake for another 3 minutes on the other side.
- Transfer naan to a parchment-lined baking sheet, bubbly side up. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the top. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, if using.
- Top with mozzarella cheese, then add Parmesan and any additional desired toppings.
- Return the naan pizzas to the oven and bake for about 3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with salt and red pepper flakes. Tear fresh basil leaves over the top. Serve and enjoy!
