Ingredients
Scale
For the Pizza:
- 2 pieces of naan bread (store-bought or homemade)
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing the naan)
- 1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped (for garnish)
For the Honey-Caramelized Onions:
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp honey
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Caramelize the Onions: In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes until softened and golden brown.
- Add Honey and Season: Once the onions are caramelized, drizzle in the honey, season with salt and pepper to taste, stir well, and cook for another 1-2 minutes so the honey coats the onions fully. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the naan pizzas.
- Brush Naan with Olive Oil: Lightly brush both sides of the naan bread pieces with olive oil to ensure they crisp up nicely during baking.
- Initial Bake: Place the naan on a baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes until warm and lightly crisped.
- Assemble Pizzas: Remove the naan from the oven and evenly spread the honey-caramelized onions on each piece.
- Add Feta and Blueberries: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and fresh blueberries evenly over the caramelized onions.
- Bake Again: Return the naan pizzas to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the feta softens and the blueberries begin to burst.
- Garnish: Remove pizzas from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped basil for a fresh herbal finish.
- Serve: Slice the naan pizzas and serve immediately while warm to enjoy the melty cheese and vibrant toppings.
Notes
- You can substitute naan with pita bread or flatbread if preferred.
- Use fresh, ripe blueberries for best flavor and to create bursts of sweetness.
- Adjust the amount of honey in the onions depending on your sweetness preference.
- For a vegan option, replace butter with vegan margarine and use a plant-based feta alternative.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven to retain crispiness.
