Best Spring Vegetable Pizzas Recipes

ULTIMATE VEGGIE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit with a rack in the upper third of the oven. If you're using a baking stone or baking steel, place it on the upper rack. Prepare dough through step 5.
• Spread pizza sauce evenly over the two pizzas, leaving about 1 inch bare around the edges. Evenly distribute the spinach on top of the sauce, followed by the cheese (use all three cups if you want a cheesy pizza as shown here).
• Top the pizzas with artichoke, bell pepper, red onion, tomatoes, olives and almonds (if using).
• Bake pizzas individually on the top rack until the crust is golden and the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 10 to 12 minutes (or significantly less, if you're using a baking stone/steel-keep an eye on it).
• Transfer pizzas to a cutting board and sprinkle with with fresh basil, red pepper flakes and Parmesan, if using. Slice and serve! Leftover pizza keeps well in the refrigerator for 4 days, or for several months in the freezer.

ROASTED SPRING VEGETABLE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220C/Gas 7/fan oven 200C. Tip the flour, salt and yeast into a bowl and mix well. Add the warm water and mix to a soft dough. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 2-3 minutes, then roll out to a 30cm/12in round. Brush a large baking sheet with a thin slick of oil, then add the pizza base. Cover with a clean tea towel.
• Cut the peppers into rings and slice the leek. Toss the leek and red peppers in the oil, salt and pepper. Spread over a baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes.
• Spread the pizza base with the passata. Scatter over the leek and red pepper. Thinly slice the mozzarella and arrange over the vegetables. Scatter over the whole cherry tomatoes and peas and sprinkle with the parmesan. 4 Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the crust is crisp and lightly browned. To serve, cut into four wedges.
