This mini naan bread pizza is a great way to get your kids involved in the cooking process. Encourage your child to be creative in choosing toppings and make their own pizza.
It not only helps them to learn essential life skills but also allows them to explore and try food with various textures and flavours that they wouldn’t want to try otherwise.
Easy vegetable flatbread pizza is a lifesaver on days when you are short of time to cook or on those lazy days you don’t want to spend much time in the kitchen but want to serve your family an enticing meal. Having help from little hands would reduce half of your stress!
While cooking with kids sounds lovely, kid's safety should be given the utmost importance. Ensure young kids do not handle the oven on their own to avoid burning and make sure older kids wear suitable oven gloves while handling the oven.
Do not allow kids to use sharp knives. The plastic knives specially designed for kids are a great alternative that reduces the chances of bad cuts. Refer safety disclaimer for more details.
Ingredients
Step By Step Instructions
Preheat oven to 220 C (430 F).
1. Place naan breads on a lined baking tray. Apply butter and generous pizza sauce.
2. Now add toppings - sprinkle shredded cheese all over naan bread, followed by sliced onion, mixed peppers.
3 & 4. Add corn followed by cherry tomatoes, garlic and oregano.
Place the baking tray in the oven and bake for 5-8 minutes just until the cheese melts.

Variations and Substitutions
Garlic naan or garlic coriander naan could be used instead of plain naan bread.
Pizza sauce could be replaced with passata, pesto, tomato sauce, carrot chutney or green chutney. You could even use homemade pasta sauce. Get the recipe from my pasta with hidden vegetable sauce post.
Add a few jalapenos or chill flakes for adults or older kids if they prefer spicy pizza.
Tips and Tricks
Do not bake too long as it makes flatbread crust hard and chewy. Ensure to bake just until cheese melts.
Choose thick flatbread such as naan bread or pita bread to replicate the taste and texture of authentic pizza crust.
Use thin flatbread if you prefer crispy crust. Toast the flatbread before topping just to ensure naan pizza turns out crispy.
Pizza Topping Ideas
Use whatever topping your child chooses, such as
- Mushrooms
- Olives
- Spinach
- Basil
- Jalapenos
- Bell peppers (capsicum)
- Red onion
- Corn
- Oregano/Basil/Mixed Italian Herbs
- Tomatoes
- Mozzarella/cheddar cheese
Notes
Use as many toppings as your family likes. Consider the measurements shown here as guidance.
Sprinkle chilli flakes or add jalapeno peppers for older children or adults who prefer a spicy flavour.
