Directions
| Step 1 |
Preheat oven to 450 degrees (I like my dough/bread crispy so I set the oven to 475). |  |
| Step 2 |
Prepare the toppings for the pizza. |  |
| Step 3 |
Place the Naan bread on a cooling rack for a crispier crust or a pizza or cookie sheet for a softer crust. |  |
| Step 4 |
Spread the roasted garlic on the Naan bread. |  |
| Step 5 |
Then, spoon a thin layer of marinara sauce over the Naan bread (just less than 1/2 cup; add more if you prefer a heavier sauced pizza). |  |
| Step 6 |
Quarter the two 1oz slices of mozzarella cheese. |  |
| Step 7 |
Place the 2 ounces of quartered mozzarella cheese over the flat bread, distributing evenly. |  |
| Step 8 |
Stack the pepperoni and cut into quarters and place evenly over the Naan bread. As you can see, there is pepperoni at almost every bite. |  |
| Step 9 |
Bake the Naan Pizza for 3-7 minutes, depending on your desired crispiness. While the pizza bakes, cut the basil. |  |
| Step 10 |
Stack the 2 basil leaves and roll them tightly together. |  |
| Step 11 |
Cut the rolled basil thinly to make ribbons. |  |
| Step 12 |
Remove the pizza from the oven just before your desired doneness and place the shredded basil on top. Cook for another 1-2 minutes. |  |
| Step 13 |
Add the parmesan cheese and hot pepper flakes (optional). |  |
| Step 14 |
Guilt free pizza. |  |
