  • 2-3/4 cups white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup water heated to 110 degrees (very warm, almost too hot for comfort)
  • 1 sachet about, 2-1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 tablespoon dry milk powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Pizza Sauce

  • 1 cup pizza sauce (organic if possible)

  • 1/2 cup boiled green peas
  • 1/2 cup sweet corns optional
  • 1 red bell pepper cut into small cubes
  • 1 green bell pepper cut into small cubes
  • 1 carrot cut into small cubes
  • 1 red onion cut into cubes

Pizza Topping

  • 1-1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese grated
  • green olives as required
  • fresh or dried herbs i used parsley & basil

Instructions
 

  • Whisk water, sugar, oil and yeast in a liquid measuring cup or small bowl. Allow yeast to proof for 5 minutes. It should puff up some by then.
  • Pulse flour, dry milk powder and salt in food processor until combined. While running the food processor, slowly pour in the water mixture and process until a shaggy ball forms, about 1 minute.
  • Dump the dough onto a floured work surface and quickly knead dough a few times until it comes together.
  • Apply some olive oil all over the dough.
  • Cover loosely and keep in a large bowl at room temperature for 1 hour or until the dough will double up and nicely leaven.
  • Meanwhile, toss vegetables in a little olive oil.
  • Add your favorite herbs seasoning and roast 1-2 minutes or until crisp-tender and keep aside.
  • Preheat oven at 200 degree C.
  • Now divide dough into 8 equal balls.
  • Flatten the each ball evenly.For best results, roll the dough out about as thin as reasonably possible.
  • Aim for even thickness rather than a perfectly round shape.
  • Roll out all balls and transfer them into small pizza pans (if your baking pan isn’t non-stick, lightly grease it with cooking spray).
  • Brush the outer 1-inch of the dough with a light coating of olive oil.
  • Spread the pizza sauce on the mini pizza’s.
  • Sprinkle half of the cheese over the pizza sauce.
  • Add vegetables and sprinkle remaining cheese on pizza’s.
  • Top with olives and fresh or dried herbs.
  • Bake on the middle rack until the crust turn lightly golden and cheese is melted & bubbly, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle some fresh basil and parsley over them.
  • Your Homemade Veggie Pizza is ready to serve. ENJOY!!
