Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces naan bread Feel free to use whole wheat naan for a healthier option.
  • 2 ripe peaches, sliced Or nectarines, depending on what's fresh.
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Balsamic glaze Optional, for drizzling.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Place naan on the baking sheet. Brush each piece with olive oil, ensuring the edges are well coated for a crispy finish.
Cooking
  1. Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese over each naan, allowing the cheese to melt beautifully as it bakes.
  2. Arrange the sliced peaches on top of the cheese, distributing them evenly for balanced flavor in every bite.
  3. Slide the baking sheet into the oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
  4. Once baked, remove the pizzas from the oven and immediately sprinkle fresh basil leaves on top. The residual heat will slightly wilt the basil, enhancing its flavor.
  5. If desired, drizzle balsamic glaze over the top before slicing into delightful pieces.

Notes

For added spice, sprinkle red pepper flakes on top before serving. To store leftovers, keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days or freeze baked naan pizza slices.
