- 1 Naan ( We used garlic naan, but any naan will do. )
Instructions
Making the pizza:
-
Preheat the oven at 400F. Soften cream cheese and spread on the naan. Drizzle on basil butter. Butter doesn't have to cover the entire flatbread pizza. Place sauteed veggies and goat cheese. Add the olives, capers and crush oregano between your fingers then sprinkle over the naan. Generously cover the naan with mozzarella. Bake for 8-10min. Watch from 8mins onward to make sure we are not over cooking the pizza. Ovens vary. When it is done brush the basil butter on the edges of naan. Rest the flatbread pizza for cooling it slightly, slice and enjoy.
For making basil butter:
-
Melt a table spoon of butter in a sauce pan on medium heat. Add basil to it and wait till you can smell the basil in the air. Make sure not to burn the herb otherwise you will notice a bitterness on your pizza (speaking from experience). Add a pinch of salt for taste.
Recipe Notes
Notes:
- If you are using a toaster oven to make this recipe. This will still work but reduce the temperature 375F and watch how it turns out.
- You can substitute any ingredients in this pizza for other ingredients you like BUT make sure that moisture content stays to a minimum when you top it. Since flatbread are fairly thin, the pizza will be soggy.
