How to make Bread Pizza on Stovetop
- ▢Grease a pan/ griddle with 1 tsp oil. Toast the bread lightly on one side. Switch off the heat.
- ▢Remove the bread to a board or tray, so the crisp side is on top. This step is optional but helps to keep the bread firm.
- ▢Smear pizza sauce thinly as desired.
- ▢Layer onions, bell pepper and tomatoes. Next grate and layer cheese and then the herbs and chili flakes. If you have olives, place them as well.
- ▢Place the bread on the griddle. Cover the pan & begin to toast on a low to medium heat.
- ▢Toast until the cheese melts. Keep checking to avoid burning the bread.
Make bread pizza in oven
- ▢Arrange the bread slices on a baking tray & preheat the oven at 430 F or 220 C.
- ▢Meanwhile , arrange the bread slices on a baking tray.
- ▢Spread pizza sauce over the bread. Layer onions, capsicum and tomatoes. Next grate and layer cheese. Sprinkle herbs and chili flakes. Place olives as well.
- ▢Keep the tray in a preheated oven in the middle rack. Bake/ grill for 8 mins at 430 F or 220 C. Adjust the grill time as needed. The veggies get grilled partially and the cheese melts and turns golden. Serve bread pizza hot as a snack or breakfast.
In the Air fryer
- ▢Smear some sauce over the bread and place it in the air fryer basket. Spread all your topping along with cheese. Air fry at 180 C or 350 F for 5 to 6 mins or until golden and crisp. Without preheating it takes up to 7 to 8 mins.
