Oyster Mushroom Naan Bread Pizza

Easy-to-make Oyster Mushroom Naan Bread Pizza is a family pizza night favorite. Our 10-year-old daughter loves helping make this mushroom flatbread.

Why You'll Love Oyster Mushroom Pizza

If you’re anything like me, weeknights are a race against the clock. Between picking up our daughter from school or a playdate, and then shuttling her to gymnastics and piano lessons, I’m often left wondering what to make for supper. That’s where this Oyster Mushroom Naan Bread Pizza comes to the rescue - a lightning-fast, flavor-packed solution that turns simple ingredients into something special.

This naan pizza recipe is a tribute to the mushroom foragers, the farmers market wanderers, and the home cooks who want something deeply satisfying without a pile of dirty dishes. It’s one of my favorite oyster mushroom recipes because it walks that delicious line between rustic and refined, hearty and healthy.

Even better? You don’t need to spend hours in the kitchen. With just a few fresh ingredients and a hot oven, this mushroom naan pizza is ready to devour in under 30 minutes.

Easy Naan Bread Pizza

You don’t need to make pizza dough from scratch. Using store-bought naan bread from ALDI or Sam's Club creates a crisp and chewy base with no rising time, no kneading, no stress. And because naan is already baked, it crisps up beautifully in the oven - ideal for flatbread pizza recipes.

Oyster mushrooms - either wild from the woods or store-bought from your local farmer's market or Asian grocery store - are the star here. Meaty, tender, and rich, they soak up the olive oil and salt like a sponge and deliver big flavor in every bite.

Pair the oyster mushrooms with roasted red peppers, sautéed spinach, garlic, and two kinds of cheese, and you’ve got a mushroom flatbread pizza that is salty, cheesy, and green. It’s a veggie-forward healthy dinner but still hearty, and best of all, this naan bread pizza is kid-approved in my house. Our 10-year-old daughter absolutely loves it!

What Kind of Mushrooms Should I Use?

I used oyster mushrooms for this pizza with naan bread. Their delicate texture and layered caps crisp and caramelize when sautéed in olive oil. They're easy to find these days, especially at Asian grocery stores and farmers markets. But if you're a forager, even better - wild oyster mushrooms add a whole new dimension of flavor.

You could even mix in some chanterelles or lion’s mane if you've got them.

How To Customize Your Naan Pizza

• This oyster mushroom pizza recipe is endlessly flexible. Don’t have roasted red peppers? Use sun-dried tomatoes. Want it spicier? Add a few red pepper flakes with the Italian seasoning. You can even swap out the mozzarella for provolone or feta.
• But don’t mess with the mushrooms. Let those glorious golden beauties be the star.

Mushroom Flatbread For Supper

Pair this mushroom flatbread with a green salad or roasted asparagus. Or just slice it up and let your kids eat it with their hands while you sneak a piece in the kitchen.

Oyster Mushroom Pizza Ingredients

There are many variations for naan bread pizzas, but this oyster mushroom version is our favorite. Here is the list of ingredients you'll need:

• ½ pound oyster mushrooms, cleaned
• 4 Tablespoons olive oil, divided
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 4 naan bread pieces
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
• ½ cup Parmesan cheese, shaved or grated
• ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning, divided
• 1 cup roasted red peppers, chopped
• 2 cups spinach
• 1 Tablespoon minced garlic

How to Make Mushroom Naan Pizza

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 2 Tablespoons olive oil. Add the oyster mushrooms. Season with kosher salt. Sauté for about 6 minutes, stirring often, until they are soft and golden brown.

3. Meanwhile, brush the remaining olive oil evenly over the naan bread.

4. Top each piece with ¼ cup shredded mozzarella and 2 Tablespoons Parmesan. Leave a 1-inch crust around the edges. Sprinkle each with ⅛ teaspoon Italian seasoning.

5. Remove the cooked mushrooms from the skillet and transfer to a plate.

6. Place naan on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 3 minutes.

7. While that heats, add the chopped spinach and minced garlic to the same skillet. Sauté over medium-high heat for 2 minutes.

8. Remove the warm naan bread pizza with the melted cheese from the oven.

9. Top each with ¼ cup roasted red peppers and the cooked mushrooms and spinach. Place back in the oven and bake for 3 minutes more.

10. Slice and serve hot.
