Instructions
Preparation
- All ingredients are calculated to make two 8-inch (20cm) pizzas. So remember to split all of the toppings in half for both pizzas. I recommend preparing one pizza at a time. When the first one is in the oven, prepare the second.Also, the baking time depends on which dough you choose, how thick it is, and what equipment you use. If you use and follow my yeast pizza dough recipe, bake for 5-7 minutes when using a pizza steel and for 8-12 minutes when using a baking sheet. If you use storebought pizza dough, follow the directions on the package.
- Preheat the oven and a baking sheet to 475°F / 250°C for 20-30 minutes. If you are baking with a pizza steel, preheat for 45-60 minutes.
- If you have a pizza peel, sprinkle it generously with semolina and set it aside. Otherwise, sprinkle a piece of parchment paper with semolina and set aside.
- Prepare the dough, divide it in half, and shape it to your preference. Then transfer to the pizza peel or parchment paper.
Nutella Pizza
- Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon and set aside. Then brush the melted butter on the dough and sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly over it. Bake until the crust is baked through. Spread the Nutella evenly on the hot crust and top with other toppings as desired.
Honey Pizza
- Sprinkle the almond slices evenly on the dough and drizzle with the honey. Then bake until the crust is baked through. Top the hot crust with dollops of goat cheese, fresh figs, and additional honey as you like.
Strawberry Pizza
- Combine the cream cheese, sugar, mashed strawberries, and vanilla. Then, spread half of the mixture on top of the dough and bake until baked through. Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture on top of the hot crust and add the fresh strawberries.
Chocolate Pizza
- Place the chocolate along the edges of the prepared and shaped dough, then fold the edges of the dough over the chocolate and seal with your fingers that the chocolate is completely enclosed. Bake and then top with your favorite toppings like chocolate spread and berries.
