  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pieces Naan bread
  • 1 fresh peach, thinly sliced (or 1/2 cup drained canned peach slices)
  • 4 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced or shredded
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon balsamic glaze (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
  • Pinch of salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If using fresh peaches, thinly slice them. If using canned peaches, ensure they are well drained. Thinly slice or shred the fresh mozzarella cheese.
  2. Step 2: Place the Naan breads on a baking sheet. Lightly brush the surface of each Naan with olive oil, then distribute the fresh mozzarella cheese evenly over the oiled Naan.
  3. Step 3: Arrange the peach slices over the cheese on each Naan bread. Sprinkle lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  4. Step 4: Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the Naan edges are golden and slightly crispy.
  5. Step 5: Carefully remove the pizzas from the oven. Immediately scatter the fresh basil leaves over the hot pizzas. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and honey, if desired.
  6. Step 6: Slice the pizzas into wedges and serve warm.

Notes

  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, though it's truly best enjoyed fresh.
  • For best results, reheat leftover slices in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes, or until warmed through and the Naan crisps up again.
  • This delightful pizza makes a fantastic light lunch or appetizer; try serving it alongside a simple arugula salad with a lemon vinaigrette to cut through the richness.
  • Embrace the fresh ingredients! Using a perfectly ripe, juicy peach and tearing the basil right before serving will unlock the most vibrant flavors and aromas.
