This 10-Minute Simple Naan Pizza recipe offers a quick and easy way to enjoy homemade pizza using fluffy naan bread as the crust. Perfect for busy weeknights, this recipe combines flavorful tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and classic Italian seasonings for a delicious and family-friendly meal that can be prepared and cooked in just 10 minutes.

Ingredients

Base

  • 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
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

Toppings

  • 1 cup tomato sauce or pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare the Naan Bread: Place the naan breads on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Mix dried basil, dried oregano, and garlic powder to create the pizza seasoning. Lightly brush or spray each naan with olive oil, then sprinkle evenly with the prepared seasoning. Bake on the middle oven rack for 3-4 minutes until the naan starts to turn golden and crispy—monitor closely to avoid burning.
  3. Add Toppings and Bake: Remove the naan from the oven and spread a thin, even layer of tomato or pizza sauce over each one. Add any additional desired toppings, then sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and the edges of the naan are golden and crisp.
  4. Serve: Allow the naan pizzas to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving for best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Choose slightly thicker naan bread if you plan to add many toppings to ensure it holds well without becoming soggy.
  • Use a thin layer of tomato sauce to prevent the naan from becoming soggy during baking.
  • Pre-baking the naan is crucial to keep the crust crispy and prevent sogginess after adding toppings.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, place leftover naan pizza on a baking pan and warm in a preheated oven at 375 degrees F until the cheese is melted and the naan is heated through.
