Instructions
Version 1: Garlic Mushroom Spinach White Cheddar Pizza
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Sauté Toppings: Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and a few cracks of black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until mushrooms are cooked and lightly browned. Add the spinach and a pinch of salt; cook for another minute or so until the spinach is wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare Naan: Drizzle the naan bread with the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and a few cracks of black pepper. Place the naan on a foil-lined baking sheet.
- Pre-Bake Naan: Bake for 5 minutes.
- Assemble Pizza: Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Top the pre-baked naan with half of the shredded white cheddar cheese. Spoon the mushroom spinach mixture evenly over the cheese. Top with the rest of the white cheddar cheese.
- Bake & Broil: Bake for 3 minutes. Turn the oven broiler to high. Broil for another 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and starting to get golden. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Finish & Serve: Remove from the oven. Sprinkle with chopped chives and a pinch of red pepper flakes (if using). Carefully top with the cooked egg. Serve immediately.
Version 2: Kale Bacon Burrata Pizza
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook Bacon (if not already cooked): Cook bacon until crisp, drain on paper towels, and crumble. Reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
- Sauté Toppings: Add the reserved bacon grease (or 1 tbsp olive oil) to a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the chopped kale and sauté for another minute or until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare Naan: Drizzle the naan bread with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and a few cracks of black pepper. Place the naan on a foil-lined baking sheet.
- Pre-Bake Naan: Bake for 5 minutes.
- Assemble Pizza: Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Top the pre-baked naan with the sautéed kale. Tear the burrata cheese into pieces and place them evenly over the kale. Sprinkle with the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and the crumbled bacon.
- Bake & Broil: Bake for 3 minutes. Turn the oven broiler to high. Broil for another 2 minutes, or until the burrata is melted and starting to get golden. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Finish & Serve: Remove from the oven. Carefully top with the cooked egg. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Naan Bread: Use store-bought plain or garlic naan bread. Pita bread can also be substituted.
- Egg: Cook your egg separately just before the pizza comes out of the oven so it’s nice and warm. Sunny-side up or fried with a runny yolk is delicious!
- Cheese: Freshly grating your cheese yields the best melting results. Feel free to substitute cheeses (e.g., mozzarella for white cheddar or burrata).
- Broiling: Keep a very close eye on the pizzas under the broiler, as they can go from golden to burnt very quickly.
- Storage: These breakfast pizzas are best enjoyed fresh.
