Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
Cut Out Heart Shapes
- Use a 3.7-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut 6 hearts from the naan pitas.

- Use a 1.2-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut 18 mini hearts from the pepperoni slices.
Assemble the Pizzas
- Spread about 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce on each naan heart, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Place a provolone cheese heart on top of the sauce.
- Add 3 mini pepperoni hearts to each pizza.
Bake
- Place the pizzas on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is bubbly and the edges of the naan are golden, about 8–10 minutes.
- For a crispier, golden top, broil for the last 30–60 seconds (top burner only).
Serve
- Serve warm with optional toppings like hot pepper oil, hot honey, or dried oregano.
