Ingredients
Scale
- 2 naan breads: soft base for the Mediterranean naan bread pizza
- 1/2 cup hummus: creamy spread that replaces traditional pizza sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil: helps crisp the naan and adds Mediterranean flavor
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese: melts and binds toppings together
- 1/3 cup feta cheese: adds tangy, salty Mediterranean taste
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved: adds juiciness and freshness
- 1/2 cucumber, diced: adds crunch and light texture
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced: adds sharpness and depth of flavor
- 1/4 cup kalamata olives, sliced: adds briny Mediterranean taste
- 1 cup fresh spinach: adds nutrients and earthy flavor
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano: enhances Mediterranean aroma
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder: adds savory depth
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice: brightens the final flavor
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a baking sheet inside to heat for a crispier Mediterranean naan bread pizza base.
- Brush each naan lightly with olive oil to enhance crispiness and flavor.
- Spread a generous layer of hummus evenly over each naan, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the hummus to create a melty base layer.
- Evenly distribute cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and spinach across the naan.
- Top with feta cheese, oregano, and garlic powder for added Mediterranean flavor.
- Carefully transfer naan pizzas to the hot baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden and cheese is melted.
- Remove from oven and finish with a drizzle of lemon juice before slicing and serving warm.
Notes
- Do not overload toppings to keep the naan crisp and prevent sogginess.
- Preheating the baking tray helps achieve a crisp, pizza-like crust.
- For extra crispiness, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end of baking.
- Best served fresh, but leftovers can be reheated in an oven or air fryer.
- Customize toppings based on seasonal vegetables or personal preference.
