10-Minute Naan Pizza
Pizza night has never been easier! 10-minute Naan Pizza that has a golden crispy crust, tons of cheese, and is so yummy and quick. Your family will love this simple recipe that takes no time at all to make!
Say hello to the quickest pizza recipe ever! All you need is 5 ingredients, 8 minutes to bake, and you have the crispiest, golden mini pizzas that are SO yummy and EASY.
When Drew and I first got married I made naan pizzas ALL the time for us. It was so easy for me whip these pizzas up and serve them alongside a salad or our favorite soup! I’ve made these pizzas for countless family dinners and parties. They are ALWAYS a hit and I never have any leftovers!
So whether you are making pizza for your family, a party, or any occasion, this recipe is your new best friend. They’re quick, tasty, and require minimal ingredients!
Ingredients You Need
You’ll need only handful of ingredients to make this recipe happen: naan, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese (optional but great for flavor!), pizza sauce, and fresh chopped basil.
How to Make 10-Minute Naan Pizza
#1 Sauce – use a homemade pizza sauce recipe or your favorite store bought.
#2 Add your toppings – Sprinkle shredded or sliced mozzarella and a little parmesan cheese. You can also use your favorite Italian cheese blend.
Pizza Toppings & Tips
Who doesn’t love pizza toppings?! And since these pizza’s are so small, you can easily personalize them to make things fun and even more delicious.
Our favorite toppings are: roasted vegetables, sliced olives, pepperoni, cooked meatballs, and cooked Italian sausage.
Extra seasonings: I love using tons fresh basil over my pizza. You can also add oregano, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes for a tiny bit of heat.
Tip if using vegetable toppings: I don’t recommend adding raw vegetable to these pizzas because they cook quickly in the oven and won’t allow the veggies enough time to soften. Pre-cook vegetables either in a pan or roast them before adding to your pizzas.
Extra Recipe Notes
- Crispy crust tip: Make your crust even better by pre-baking your naan. Bake for 3-4 minutes in the oven, carefully remove — add sauce, cheese, extra toppings, and bake for 3-4 more minutes or until cheese has melted. This will give your pizza more texture and a less doughy taste!
- Make it healthier: Swap regular naan bread for whole wheat (if available at your local grocery store).
- Pizza sauce choices: you can use a regular pizza sauce, marinara, or use fire roasted crushed tomatoes for an easy and fresh flavor!
Pair it with a soup!
Whenever serving up personalized pizzas, I love pairing them with a hearty vegetable soup! Such as our Healthy Tomato Basil Soup, Tuscan White Bean Soup, or this hearty Italian Minestrone Soup.

These pizzas look absolutely delicious! I love that using naan bread makes them so quick to bake, this would be a perfect weeknight meal 🙂
These are officially my weeknight dinner go-tos. So easy. Thank you so much!

So simple and absolutely Yummmmmmooooo.
Yay!
Absolutely perfect and so easy. Love the crispy bottom. Did mine with fresh mozzarella, spinach and Italian sausage. Thank you for this! Big fan of all your recipes. 😘
Thank you so much Mike! I’m so happy to hear this 🙂
I make naan garlic pizzas once a month for me and my husband. It’s more like ‘homemade’ and I can add whatever toppings we like. And so feel like we’re eating healthier, too, which is important because my husband has a serious heart condition.
For naan pizzas it’s always turns out great if you brush olive oil on the edges. your crust comes out way better. A little tip I gained from working at a college deli/pizza shop.
Thank you for this tip. I’m making them for the first time tonight!
Love that idea!
just made 4 naans as per recipe but we added..pepperoni slices, green pepers, onion slices…Excellent pizzas…
the naan breads after 8mins. with toppings came out edges a little crunchy ( nice ) and the rest nicely baked !!!!!
I will make these often !!!!

I’m so happy to hear that! It’s such an easy way to do pizza. Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
The naan bread pizzas looked so good, I had to try one right away. The recipe was super easy to follow and they taste as good as they look.
Pre-baking the naan makes all the difference. My family loves how quick and easy the pizzas cook. We make ours without the pizza sauce or marinara – just cheese and toppings.
