Do you love making delicious, homemade pizza? Make it easier by using fluffy, golden naan bread as the crust in this naan pizza recipe for a 10-minute healthy weeknight meal the whole family will love!
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 naan bread – store-bought or homemade
- 2 teaspoons olive oil or olive oil cooking spray – optional for extra crispy crust
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup tomato sauce or pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the naan bread onto the baking sheet in a single layer.
- Mix up the pizza seasoning (basil, oregano, garlic) then brush or spray each naan with olive oil and sprinkle each with the pizza seasoning. Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 3-4 minutes until golden. Note: they bake quickly so watch them so they don’t burn.
- Assemble the rest of the ingredients (sauce and cheese, and any other toppings you are using). Remove the naan bread from the oven, top with the sauce, any additional toppings, and the cheese in an even layer, return the pizzas to the oven and bake until the edges are nice and golden and the cheese is fully melted then remove them from the oven. This only takes 3-4 minutes.
- Let them cool for a few minutes then slice and serve!
Equipment
Notes
- You want to use naan bread that is a little thicker if you are going to load up on toppings, so it is sturdy.
- Don’t use too much tomato sauce or the bread will get soggy when you bake it. A nice thin layer is perfect!
- Do not skip pre-baking the naan bread or it will get soggy and soft after you top and bake it.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Reheat leftovers on a baking pan in the oven at 375 degrees F until the cheese is fully melted and the naan is fully warmed through.
