These pepperoni flatbreads are a quick and easy way to make homemade pizzas. They come together in less than 20 minutes and are packed with fan favorite pizza toppings.
4mini naan breads (we like the Stonefire brand) or other flatbread/crust of choice
½cupRao's pizza sauce
4ozfresh mozzarella pearls
¼cupshredded parmesan cheese
4ozsliced pepperoni
Fresh basil, for topping
Optional toppings: hot honey, thinly sliced red onion, balsamic glaze, red pepper flakes, sprinkle of dried oregano.
Instructions
Begin by preheating the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean up.
Lay each naan bread on the baking sheet and begin to assemble the pepperoni flatbreads.
Use a spoon to spread a thin layer of pizza sauce (about 2 tbsp) on the naan bread. Sprinkle a small amount of dried oregano on top if desired.
Next, scatter some of the mozzarella pearls across the top of each flatbread. If needed, you can cut the pearls in half to prevent them from rolling. Next, sprinkle the shredded parmesan cheese across the top. Feel free to add additional cheese if desired or skip it all together. Add the thinly sliced red onion (optional) and place the pepperoni across the top of the flatbreads as well.
Add the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Optional: If the bottom of your flatbreads are not crispy, place a medium frying pan on the stove over medium heat. Add a light spray of olive or avocado oil to the pan. Once the pan is hot, place the naan bread in the pan, toppings facing up. Let the bottom of the crust cook until golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes. Repeat this process for each flatbread.
Sprinkle each flatbread with fresh basil. Add any optional toppings such as a drizzle of hot honey.
Notes
Feel free to add more of your favorite toppings to these pizzas: bell peppers, olives, Italian sausage, mushrooms, pineapple, etc.
