Mini Naan Pizzas
These mini naan pizzas are a fun twist on traditional pizza, and a meal the whole family will enjoy.
I had some naan dippers in the fridge along with a bit of homemade pizza sauce, a few mini pepperonis, a hunk of mozzarella, and a handful of tiny tomatoes, so I decided to make some mini naan pizzas for a quick and tasty lunch that paired nicely with an Italian salad. These little guys were fun to make and tasted so delicious. I used pepperoni & tomato, but these mini pizzas are super adaptable, so you can use any ingredient you want, such as ham, sausage, olives, onions, peppers, mushrooms, bacon, etc. These mini naan pizzas are perfect for an appetizer, snack, or light meal, and they’re so simple to make.

How to Make Mini Naan Pizzas
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spoon a small dollop of pizza sauce in the center of each mini naan and spread evenly.
Top each mini naan with finely shredded mozzarella cheese, then a few mini pepperoni or tomato slices. Side Note: OR use whatever toppings you want, but be sure not to overcrowd the mini naan.Â
Season each mini pizza with a bit of dried oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste, if desired. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 7-9 minutes, or until the naan is golden brown and the cheese is gooey.

These naan pizzas look almost to adorable to eat. I like to use tortilla wraps to make pizza, gotta try with naan next time.
They look good – we like to use Naan for pizzas.
