Ingredients
one batch easy pizza dough
Quick pizza sauce
- 120ml (1/2 cup) tomato passata / puree
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/8 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Toppings
- 300–350g (10 1/2 – 12oz) low-moisture mozzarella, grated
- 2 TBSPs olive oil
- Red bell pepper, sliced into triangles for eyes or strips
- Kalamata olives, sliced into rounds
- Sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Follow this recipeand make pizza dough through step 4. When kneaded enough, split dough into 6 equal balls. Lay them on a slightly floured work surface, in a corner of the kitchen that isn’t cold, cover with a thick kitchen towel and let dough rise for at least 20-30 minutes.
- Meanwhile make sauce: Combine tomato puree, salt, sugar, oregano and olive oil in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 200°C (392°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Once risen, take each ball of dough and stretch it into a disk (about the size of a small dessert plate). Pull out a small piece of dough out of the whole pizza crust, so that you get that pumpkin stem.
- Transfer each crust to the prepared sheets, 3 per each one. Brush the edges of each crust with olive oil. Add a few tablespoons of pizza sauce in the middle and evenly spread around. Top evenly with cheese.
- Decorate each pizza however you want. I use red pepper triangles and sun-dried tomatoes for eyes, sliced olives for mouths.
- Bake in the middle of the oven for about 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and the dough puffy with a crust formed. You can tap that crust with a spoon and it should sound hollow, the bottom of the pizza should be crispy too.
- Remove from oven. If any of the toppings, like eyes, have moved you can now put them back in place. Let pizza sit for a few minutes, so it’s not scolding hot, then serve.
