This recipe for a savory Blueberry, Feta, and Honey-Caramelized Onion Naan Pizza will surely surprise your tastebuds!
I saw a dear friend today. It had been too long since the last time we met, way too long. I’m not quite sure how that happened, but as I hugged her and marveled at how her children have grown so much, I made a quiet promise to myself that I will never let time slip like that from me again.
Life has a terrible habit of getting in the way, and as much as I embrace social media and the idea of staying connected through it, I realize that it can keep us apart. Seeing pictures of friends on Facebook is not the same as giving each other a hug in person, looking into their eyes, and hearing their laughter in person.
Living through the seasons reminds me of this, in an odd sort of way. When the berries and stone fruit return after many months, you remember that absence all the more and want to waste no time in savoring every moment you can while they are here.
You may wonder if I will ever stop with the blueberries, but I just can’t. Finding new ways to enjoy blueberries in savory dishes has occupied my thoughts these last several weeks, as you already know. So when I pulled out these gems from the oven the other day, I was on cloud nine. Plump blueberries bled their inky juice on pizzas that were smothered with ricotta and feta cheese and honey-caramelized onions. Each bite was everything I love when I make a savory fruit pizza – salty, sweet, savory and spicy, all melted together.
If there is one blueberry recipe you must try this summer, please promise me you will try this one. Do it while they are here, and share it with a friend. Pizza is always better that way.

Blueberry, Feta and Honey-Caramelized Onion Naan Pizza
Ingredients
- 2 naan flatbreads see notes below
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 cup thinly sliced red onion
- kosher salt
- pinch red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup feta cheese
- 1 cup blueberries
- micro arugula or regular baby arugula
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the naan/flatbread on the baking sheet and lightly spray or brush with water. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium pan over medium low heat. Add the onion and season with a pinch of salt to taste and red pepper flakes. Cook the onions until it is wilted, about 3-5 minutes and stir in the honey, letting the onions caramelize. Remove from heat.
- While the onions cook, stir the ricotta and feta cheese in a small bowl. Spread the ricotta mixture over the naan/flatbread, and top with the honey caramelized onions. Sprinkle the blueberries on top.
- Place the naan pizzas into the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the blueberries are just about ready to burst, the cheese has softened, and the naan is toasted. Remove from oven, sprinkle with arugula and enjoy immediately.

COOKBOOK
This was excellent!! I couldn’t find arugula but it didn’t matter, it was so good!
Yay! I’m so glad you loved it, Jasmine!
This recipe was amazing! I made it for a group of friends and everyone loved it! Keep up the good work with the recipes
Debbie, I’m so glad you and your friends enjoyed the pizza! Thank you for coming back to let me know! :)
I made this today but used fresh blackberries and after it was done baking, I drizzled it with blackberry ginger balsamic. What an amazing recipe! Thank you for the inspiration!
Very nice recipe! I found it needed more baking time. Not sure if the naan bread needs to be brushed with water.
Thanks, Hannele! Baking time can definitely vary depending on ovens, etc, so I’m glad you adjusted as needed! You can definitely skip brushing with water, but I like to do it as I feel it helps crisp the crust and lock in some moisture.
Wow…this recipe looks and sounds amazing! My taste buds are yelling at me to try it!!
Try this with Kent

This is absolutely scrumptious. Omitted Honey.
So glad you enjoyed it, Penny! I agree, it’s good with or without the honey, though I’m partial to the sweetness :)
This Blueberry, Feta and Honey-Caramelized Onion Naan Pizza is something new for me! I found your post from Pinterest! Thanks for sharing rare and creative recipe, Liren!
You’re so welcome, Julia! Hope you enjoy it!
woah, i wish i could post a pic of my version of this with chicken, sautéed spinach, garlic, and cherry tomatoes. AMAZING. simply great recipe to tweak and make your own :)
Looks yummy – just wondering if anyone has tried using frozen blueberries?
Hi Sandy! Great question — I’ve only used it with fresh blueberries, but am curious how the frozen ones would hold up. I’m thinking that as long as they were fairly large blueberries and added before they had a chance to thaw, it could work, though the berries will likely be very soft. Just a guess. If you give it a try with the frozen, please do let me know how it works out!
I made this recipe twice; once with fresh and one with frozen berries and each work fine! I also baked eggs on this to make it more filling for dinner without competing with any flavors.
Awesome, Kaylee, I’m glad to hear it! And adding eggs is a smart idea! Thank you so much for letting us know!
Love using naan for a quick pizza option!
It’s perfect for satisfying the pizza craving in a flash!
Love using naan for a quick pizza option!
This post really resonated with me! First, it’s so true that social media and the idea of staying connected through it can keep us apart. It is definite;y not the same as hugging in person or hearing someone laugh. I think we often forget about this. Secondly, I love the idea of a savory blueberry pizza. I just started getting ripe blueberries on my blueberry bushes and this will be such a great way to mix things up! Great job Liren!
Love this savory combination. I never get sick of seasonal recipes! I feel the same way about in-season produce. We gotta take advantage. YUM!
I love your comparison of seasonal ingredients to treasuring time with dear friends. I simply cannot get enough. I’m also loving that you used the blueberries in a savory way. I need to do that more!
Oh my, Liren! You knocked it out of the blueberry patch with this one. Can’t wait to serve it at my next gathering. Completely WOW!
This recipe is a summer dream. Summery, fresh, and PIZZA. It’s fusion at its best.
Such a stunner. Ever since I saw your post on Facebook, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. Looks so amazing!
I”m going to go on a hunt for that brand of naan because it looks so perfect! This combo is a killer… I can’t wait to try it.
I’ve been waiting for this recipe ever since I saw a teaser on Instagram a week ago. WOW!
Hat’s off to you. This looks super fabulous.
I love all the berries in the markets right now—and this pizza is the perfect way to showcase the sweet blueberries I’ve been popping in my mouth :)
This seriously has my name all over it.
Never any need to apologize about overuse of blueberries. Bring it on. And yesterday I saw a friend that I hadn’t seen in person since like 2002! We have stayed connected via the internet, but it was so good to actually “see” her in real life. I realized how many little nuances I was missing out on because of our internet-only connection for so many years. Anyway, it’s great to step back from the computer every once in a while! :-)
I feel like you just went into my brain and picked out the things I love the most right now and made a pizza out of them! Its pretty awesome.
You had me at blueberry, this is simply stunning Liren!
This pizza is beautiful! I love using naan as a pizza crust. I think this would also work well on a cauliflower crust, don’t you?
Such a gorgeous meal. I love blueberries in savory dishes, too!
I love the idea of using naan for pizza crust and really you can’t go wrong with those toppings.. I know this tastes good.
On another note, your words about visiting your old friend make me long to see my friends from growing up! Time slips away so quickly!!
Hi Liren! This is such a beautiful fruit pizza. The light, colors and textures are so gorgeous! So glad I found your blog via Pinterest today! Your photos are absolutely inspiring – just what I need to push my food photography to the next level!
Cheers from Buenos Aires, Argentina!
It’s so true that there’s nothing like one-one-one in-person time with friends. Social media just doesn’t cut it when it comes to good friend! This pizza is blowing my mind…what a fantastic combination of flavors.
Fruit on pizza is my absolute fave! Love this! pinned!
