Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 naan breads
  • 1 large ripe peach, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheese of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze (optional)
  • Pinch of salt & pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Naan: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the naan breads on a baking sheet and brush both sides lightly with olive oil to ensure they crisp up nicely.
  2. Crisp the Naan: Bake the naan in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes until they become slightly crispy. Remove the naan from the oven carefully.
  3. Add Toppings: Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese over each naan. Arrange the thinly sliced peaches neatly on top, followed by fresh basil leaves. Drizzle a little olive oil over the toppings and season with a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance the flavors.
  4. Bake to Melt Cheese: Return the topped naan to the oven and bake for an additional 7 to 9 minutes, or until the cheese has melted completely and the edges of the naan are golden brown.
  5. Finish and Serve: Once baked, optionally drizzle with balsamic glaze and garnish with extra basil leaves. Slice the pizzas and serve warm for a delicious meal or snack.

Notes

  • You can substitute mozzarella with any melting cheese such as fontina or provolone for different flavor profiles.
  • The balsamic glaze adds a sweet and tangy contrast but can be omitted for a simpler taste.
  • For a vegan version, replace cheese with vegan cheese and ensure naan bread is vegan-friendly.
  • Use ripe peaches for the best sweetness and flavor balance.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture and taste as naan bread can lose crispness if left to sit.
