Looking for the easiest way to get lunch or dinner on the table for your toddler that they will actually eat? Look no further than these naan bread pizzas! They take just 10 minutes to make, are completely customizable, pretty inexpensive, and always a hit with toddlers and kids of all ages.
All you need is naan bread, sauce and whatever toppings you have on hand. Leftover chicken? Perfect! Random veggies in the fridge? Great! Any kind of cheese you’ve got in the deli drawer works great, or you can always go without cheese if needed. This recipe will just be for basic red sauce and mozzarella cheese, but can be completely customized to your toddler’s preferences and what you have in the house.
Ingredients Needed for Naan Bread Pizzas
Naan Bread: The most important ingredient here is naan bread! You can find it at pretty much any grocery store in the bakery section. You can always sub this out for English muffins or pita bread if necessary.
Sauce: I used pizza sauce here, but you can use pesto, BBQ sauce, alfredo sauce, or even my hidden veggie pasta sauce for added nutrition!
Cheese: While not technically necessary, a pizza is always better with cheese. I use basic shredded mozzarella here, but I also love using feta or goat cheese. You can use cheddar, or any cheese you have on hand!
Toppings: This time I used pepperoni, but I also love using whatever I have on hand. From shredded chicken to olive slices, peppers and more!
Baby-Led Weaning for Naan Bread Pizzas
These delicious Naan Bread Pizzas can be served as early as 6 months old. I would make sure to safely test the allergens (Wheat and Dairy) first. Start by cutting them in strips that are easy for your baby to hold!

Storage for Naan Bread Pizzas
Store any leftovers in the fridge for 3-5 days. If you have extra Naan bread, I highly recommend freezing it until next time you are ready to make pizzas.
