Paneer Pizza is made with a homemade pizza base and a delicious paneer tikka topping. You can also swap out the pizza base with Naan bread to make Naan Pizza. Better than any pizza from restaurant chains!
What’s not to love about pizza made with a homemade pizza base and a delicious paneer tikka topping? This paneer tikka pizza has now become our Friday night family favorite meal. Why is paneer tikka not on the global map yet? Move over pineapple pizza, give me paneer pizza any day!
This pizza is inspired by the Pizza Hut and Dominos (Indian pizza chains) paneer pizza versions. I live in Switzerland, and here there is no dearth of good quality pizzas made by local Italian and Turkish restaurants. However, I miss these Indian pizza chains which have so much variety in toppings – from Paneer Tikka to Chicken Tikka Masala and so much more!
Instant Veg Pizza
I like to make my own pizza base and I always proof the dough in my Instant Pot. This is how I like to speed up the dough proving process to make Pav for Pav Bhaji, or to make my Naan bread.
This Indian-inspired veggie pizza is super customizable and you can add any combination of toppings that you like. I will be sharing my tried and tested paneer tikka topping – with suggestions for how you can modify this recipe.
Yeast – Use either instant yeast or active dry yeast. If using active dry yeast, make sure you activate the yeast in ½ a cup of warm milk and sugar.
Paneer Pizza Recipe (whole Wheat Pizza)
If you are using active dry yeast, activate the yeast in ½ a cup of warm milk and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Let the yeast sit still for 5-8 minutes until it looks bubbly and activated. If you are using instant yeast, skip this step.
Measure out 17 ounces of bread flour (or all-purpose flour) in the bowl of a stand mixer (or use a regular mixing bowl). Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt to season, and the yeast.
In the stand mixer, add 1 cup of warm water a little at a time and mix the dough for 7-10 minutes, until the dough is together. The dough should form a ball and clean the sides of the bowl. If kneading with hand, knead on a floured kitchen counter until the dough forms a ball.

I use my Instant Pot to proof the dough. The 'Yogurt' setting of the Instant Pot creates the perfect proofing environment for the dough to proof well and double in size.
Brush the inside of the Instant Pot with olive oil. Place the dough ball inside. Set the Instant Pot to 'Yogurt ' setting for 1 hour. Cover with a glass lid. After 1 hour, the dough will have doubled in size.
Remember, you don't HAVE to use an Instant Pot!, you can use simply your oven to proof the dough. Simply keep the dough ball in a large bowl lightly covered with a kitchen cloth, and place the bowl in the oven, with its light on.

You can also keep the bowl covered this way in any warm place in your kitchen for 1 hour until the dough has doubled in size.
In a saucepan on the stove, heat vegetable oil. Add Onions and saute 6-7 minutes until they are soft. Add the turmeric (haldi), Kashmiri chili powder, garam masala, crushed kasuri methi.
Add the paneer cubes and tomato paste into this onion mixture. Add a little water and season with salt. Cook for 5-6 minutes. Keep aside.
Easy Homemade Paneer Pizza Recipe
Preheat the oven at 450 F (250 C). I am using my cast iron pan to bake the pizza. You can also use a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
Roll out the pizza dough into a thin layer as you can see below. Top the pizza with the paneer tikka topping.
Add the shredded mozzarella cheese all over the top and bake the pizza for 25-30 minutes until the pizza is cooked through and the cheese has melted.

Paneer Naan Pizza - You can also make this pizza with a readymade Naan bread base. For a quick and easy weeknight meal, top off store-bought Naan (or make your own Naan bread at home) with the paneer tikka topping and mozzarella cheese and bake in the oven. Your Naan Bread pizza is now ready!
Use Store-bought Pizza Base - You don't have to make the pizza base from scratch! You can simply use a ready-made pizza base and make this recipe in a pinch.
Make paneer makhani pizza - You can also use leftover paneer makhani (paneer butter masala) for the topping, instead of using paneer tikka.

Make whole-wheat pizza - This pizza can be made with whole wheat flour instead of bread flour. Simply replace the flour with whole wheat flour and follow the instructions.

Bread Pizza Recipe In Oven, Tawa & Air Fryer
The best part about this recipe, you may have ALL the ingredients in your kitchen pantry/refrigerator already. Let’s have a look at the list-
» Flour – I have used wheat flour in this recipe. If you’d like, you can use half of the wheat flour and half of the all-purpose flour too. To save time, you can use store-bought pizza dough instead of homemade.
» Water- Use lukewarm water as it will allow the yeast to bloom. Yeat is heat sensitive. Water that’s too hot can kill the yeast.
Easy Homemade Pizza Dough
» Olive Oil – We will use olive oil throughout the recipe, as it will provide a nice flavor to our dough.
» Grated cheese – Grated Mozzarella cheese is preferred by all. It melts well and is gooey and stretchy. If you like, you can use any other cheese with a good melting point.
» Italian seasoning – for extra flavor. You can use any pizza spice mix or flavoring to add a kick to our Paneer tikka pizza.

Begin the recipe by marinating the paneer cubes first. If you prefer smaller paneer pieces, you can cut the paneer into small cubes or even bite-sized pieces.
Combine yogurt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth and lump-free. Add degi mirch, salt, coriander powder, turmeric, lemon juice, ginger, and garlic paste to the bowl.
Attach the dough attachment to the stand mixer and give the dry ingredients a good mix for 5 seconds on low speed.

While the dough is proofing, let’s grill our paneer. Transfer the marinated paneer to the insert of an airfryer. Spray the pieces with oil and bake them at 300 degrees F for 5-6 minutes, turning them halfway during cooking.
Grease your fingers tips with oil and keep pushing and working on the dough until it reaches the edges of the pan. The finished pizza dough will be 14″-16″ in diameter.
Assembling the pizza is an easy task. Prick the base of the pizza with a fork to avoid puffing up like naan.

Now layer the pizza with sliced onions, bell peppers, and grilled paneer cubes. Sprinkle Italian herb seasoning on top. Brush the edges with some olive oil.
Now, bake the pizza in the preheated oven at 425 degrees F for 18-20 minutes or until the cheese is all melted and the crust is golden brown.
This paneer pizza is so simple and extremely versatile. You can add almost any ingredient you want, such as sliced tomatoes, mushrooms, seasonal squash, zucchini, the list goes on and on.
