Bread Pizza (Easy and Quick)
Bread Pizza is the best way to satisfy the craving for pizza quickly and instantly. It is equally delicious, flavorful, and cheesy as the traditional pizza!
Ingredients
- 3 large bread slices (or four regular bread slices)
- Olive oil (as required)
- 2 tablespoon pizza sauce or as required
- ½ cup small cubes of green pepper
- 1 tomato cut into small cubes
- ¼ cup finely chopped baby spinach leaves (optional)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese or as required
- A few slices of olives
- A few pieces of pickled jalapeno pepper (optional)
- Dried oregano to taste
- Dried basil to taste
- Red chili flakes to taste
Instructions
- Heat a pan or skillet and spread a little oil or butter. Place the bread slices and lightly toast them on one side on low heat.
- Turn off the heat, remove the bread slices, and place them on the plate or board, keeping the toasted side up.
- Spread some pizza sauce on the toasted side and place green pepper cubes, tomato cubes, and chopped spinach. Or you can use your favorite toppings.
- Then top it with grated mozzarella cheese and place olives and jalapeno pepper.
- Now sprinkle dried oregano, basil, and red chili flakes. Or you can use your favorite herbs.
- Next, heat the pan or skillet again and place the bread slices on it. Cover the pan with the lid and keep the heat on low.
- Cook the bread pizza until the cheese melts and the bread is well toasted on the bottom. However, keep checking in between to avoid burning the bread.
- Once it is toasted, remove it from the pan and serve.
Notes
- Bread: I have used light rye bread for this recipe. But you can use white or whole wheat sandwich bread or multigrain bread to make the bread pizza.
- Sauce: I have used pizza sauce without onion and garlic. You can use your favorite store-bought or homemade pizza sauce. Or instead of pizza sauce, you can use pesto, or for kids, you can use tomato ketchup as well.
- Toppings: I have topped the bread pizza with my family's favorite toppings. However, you can add your choice of veggies and add fewer or more toppings than mentioned in the recipe.
- Herbs: If you have fresh basils, you can use them instead of dried ones. Also, you can use pizza seasoning or Italian seasoning instead of dried oregano and basil.
- Cooking: Keep the tawa on low heat while cooking bread pizza. High heat will toast the bread faster, but the cheese will not melt. Also, use a heavy tawa or skillet so the bread does not burn.
