👨🍳 How to Make Bread Pizza?
Get the bread base ready
Place the pieces of bread on a tray. Before adding toppings, lightly toast them or brush them with a thin layer of butter and toast in a skillet if you prefer a crispy foundation.
Include the Sauce
Evenly cover each slice with one spoonful of pizza sauce. Too much will cause the bread to become soggy.
Layer the toppings
Add chopped vegetables, cooked paneer or chicken, and season with herbs like oregano. Add a lot of shredded cheese on top.
Toast or Bake in the Oven:
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Stovetop: Put a pan over low heat, cover, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
Cook in an air fryer for five minutes at 180°C.
Garnish with additional cheese or chili flakes and serve hot!
💡 How to Make the Ideal Bread Pizza
To make the bread crispier, lightly toast it first.
Only use precooked toppings; uncooked ones could cause water to escape.
Avoid using too much sauce as it can destroy the texture.
Put a lid on the pan if you’re using one to help the cheese melt more quickly.
