These Naan Pizzas are a really quick and easy meal for when a pizza craving hits – ready in just 15 minutes. A soft and chewy base that needs no preparation and you can just load all your favourite toppings on. Everyone can have their own mini pizza, so everyone gets a topping they like.
Easy Naan Pizza
When those pizza cravings hit and you need a pizza on the table in under 15 minutes, then grab a ready made naan bread and load it with sauce, cheese and vegetables. You can of course make your own naan bread easily enough, but that will add time on to this recipe.
Naan Bread Pizzas are a great way to get kids involved in the kitchen, as they can help with spreading the sauce on the bread and then scattering their favourite toppings. You can use vegetables to make faces and get them asking questions about new (to them) foods. Anything to get them excited about vegetables, right?
Pizza Sauce
If we are really short on time or on a budget, then a couple of tbsp of tomato puree with herbs will do the job of a pizza sauce. Otherwise, this is a good way to use up leftover marinara or pasta sauce. Fancy something different? Why not make some of our Healthy BBQ Sauce and spread that on the base or use pesto.
Naan Pizza Toppings
Pizza topping choice is a very personal thing, and everyone has their preference. Usually on pizza night someone has to compromise and ends up picking a topping off that they hate. But, what if everyone could have their own pizza and whatever topping they wanted! If that sounds good to you, then use mini naan breads to make your pizza, rather that a larger one to share.
Really, anything goes when it comes to pizza toppings. Cheese is a must, of course. But you could go with cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan, goats cheese or a mix of all of them. Underneath the cheese we usually go with some kind of chunky topping with tomatoes and olives and put them on a bed of chopped up spinach for some added greens.
Can You Make Them in Advance?
You can make these pizzas about an hour in advance and then just put them in the oven 10 minutes before you are ready to eat. You don’t really want to make them much further in advance than that, because the bread will start to get soggy.
How To Make an Easy Naan Pizza – Step by Step
One: Make sure your naan bread has the flat side down and brush the top with a little oil.
Two: Spread the sauce on the naan bread.
Three: Add the spinach.
Four: Sprinkle the parmesan on the bread.
Five: Add the tomatoes and sun dried tomatoes
Six: Add the olives.
Seven: Sprinkle the mozzarella and goats cheese on top.
Eight: Add basil and put in a preheated oven at 190C for 8-10 minutes.

Some extra tips for this Naan Bread Pizza:
- You want to be generous with the toppings, but try not to load them up too much because the naan bread will be difficult to hold once sliced up and everything will fall off.
- Brush the naan with a little oil before topping to help the edges get crispy.
- Add some chopped up vegetables to the sauce for an added green boost.
- Use leftover pasta sauce as the base or you could use a BBQ sauce.
