Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 large naan breads
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 fresh peach, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced
  • 15 basil leaves, chopped
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional

  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the naan pizzas.
  2. Prepare garlic oil: In a small bowl, mix the olive oil with the minced garlic to infuse the oil with flavor.
  3. Brush naan with garlic oil: Evenly brush the garlic olive oil mixture over both sides of the naan breads to add moisture and flavor.
  4. Arrange naan on baking sheet: Place the prepared naan breads on a cookie sheet that has been lightly sprayed with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  5. Add mozzarella slices: Layer the fresh mozzarella slices evenly over each naan bread as the base cheese layer.
  6. Add peach slices: Place the thinly sliced peaches on top of the mozzarella, distributing them evenly across the surface.
  7. Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper over both naan breads to enhance flavors.
  8. Bake the pizzas: Place the cookie sheet in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is browned and bubbly. Monitor closely to avoid burning.
  9. Prepare balsamic reduction (optional): While the pizzas bake, pour the balsamic vinegar into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the vinegar thickens slightly to a syrupy consistency.
  10. Add basil topping: Once the naan pizzas are baked, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the chopped basil leaves evenly on top.
  11. Serve with balsamic drizzle: If using, drizzle the balsamic reduction over the pizzas, then cut into slices and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use fresh mozzarella for the best melt and flavor.
  • Adjust baking time based on your oven’s heat distribution.
  • Balsamic reduction adds a tangy sweetness but can be omitted for a simpler pizza.
  • Fresh peach slices should be thin to ensure even cooking.
  • Can be served as an appetizer or a light meal.
