Ingredients
 
 

For the pizza dough

Toppings

  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 cups canned sweet corn
  • 1.5 oz sun-dried tomatoes thinly chopped
  • 20 olives thinly sliced
  • 1 red onion cut into tiny rings
  • 8 cherry tomatoes sliced
  • 5 mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 handful arugula
  • 1 handful broccoli florets steamed
  • 1 tsp basil
  • ½ tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • ½ tsp Himalayan salt

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl combine the whole wheat flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add the warm water to the dry mixture. Using a spoon mix everything well. Then, knead it for a while, just to shape it into a ball.
  • Cover and leave to a warm place for about 40-60 mins to rise until it doubles its size.
  • While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • When the dough has reached twice its volume, knead it for about 5 mins, adding just a little more flour to prevent sticking. It should be smooth and elastic.
  • Divide it into two equal parts or make one large pizza. (I prefer to make two pizzas).
  • Line two baking pans with parchment paper (around 12-inches (30 cm) each).
  • Take one ball of dough and using your hands stretch it to the size of your pizza pan. Let it rest for 5 mins.
  • In a small bowl mix the tomato paste and water and stir well. Spread it equally over the dough. Sprinkle with basil, salt, and black pepper.
  • Bake the pizza crust for 10 mins. Then take it out and top it with the corn, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, onion, mushroom slices, and cherry tomatoes.
  • Return it to the oven for another 10 mins.
  • When the pizza is ready, put the arugula and broccoli florets on top.
  • Finally, add a generous amount of my Quick Universal Cashew Sauce. Enjoy!
