Ingredients
Crust
- 1 cup (140g) all-purpose flour
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus 2 teaspoons for coating the dish
- ½ cup (125ml) water
- ⅓ cup pizza sauce, divided
Toppings
- Pepperoni
- Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Pitted black olives
- Pesto or fresh basil
- Chili flakes
Preparation
- In a small bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and water with a fork until a sticky dough is formed.
- Coat 2 Small Anyday dishes with remaining olive oil. Divide the dough and transfer to each dish, pressing gently to flatten and push up along the sides.
- Brush the dough with a thin layer of sauce. Cook uncovered for minutes or until the dough is no longer sticky and slightly bouncy to the touch. You may microwave two dishes at one time.
- Add more sauce to your liking, then top the pizzas with your favorite toppings. Continue cooking for minutes, or until the toppings are hot and the dough is cooked through.
- Finish with fresh basil, pesto or chili flakes, and parmesan cheese, and enjoy!
Serving suggestions & tips
- To make this recipe even easier, use store-bought fresh or thawed frozen pizza dough. Use about ¼ cup of dough per small dish.
- Try them with Alfredo sauce instead of tomato for an easy white sauce version.
Recipe notes
- Cook the dough without the toppings, allow them to cool, then freeze in Stager bags or any other reusable bags for up to 2 months. Reheat and add toppings when needed
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
