  • Total Time: 23 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Flatbread and Base

  • 4 naan
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil

Toppings

  • 2 cups fresh spinach (about 1/2 cup per naan)
  • 4-6 ounces sliced mushrooms
  • 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese

Optional Topping

  • 1 tablespoon chili onion crunch (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the flatbreads.
  2. Place Naan On Baking Sheet: Arrange the naan flatbreads on a large baking sheet. Depending on your oven size, you may need to bake in two batches to avoid overcrowding.
  3. Mix Ricotta: In a small bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, garlic powder, and salt, stirring until smooth and well blended.
  4. Spread Ricotta: Evenly divide the ricotta mixture among the four naan flatbreads, spreading thinly and uniformly to create a flavorful base layer.
  5. Add Ingredients: Layer about 1/2 cup of fresh spinach on each flatbread, followed by sliced mushrooms. Generously top each with shredded mozzarella cheese to ensure a melty, cheesy finish.
  6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown in spots.
  7. Drizzle and Serve: Remove the pizzas from the oven and while still warm, drizzle with chili onion crunch if desired. Slice the pizzas and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, substitute the naan with a gluten-free flatbread.
  • Feel free to use baby spinach for a more tender texture.
  • If you don’t have chili onion crunch, a sprinkle of red pepper flakes can add a similar heat.
  • To add more protein, consider adding cooked chicken or a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
  • Leftover pizzas can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven for best results.
