2. This recipe makes 8, 6 cm (2.4 in.)
personal pizzas
 Prep time: 20 minutes
 Cook time: 10 minutes

3. You will need
 One recipe fresh pizza dough.
 ½ recipe pizza sauce.
 3 tablespoons grated cheddar cheese.
 3 tablespoons grated mozzarella cheese.
 2.5 ounces (70 grams) shredded smoked or double-
smoked ham.
 1 tablespoon onion confit.
 1 tablespoon Italian (flat leafed) parsley, chopped.
 Some course semolina flour, for dusting.

4. Method
 Put your pizza stone or heavy pizza pan in the oven
and set the oven to 480 degrees Fahrenheit (250
degrees Celcius).
 Dust a clean work surface with the semolina flour and
roll the pizza dough out until it is flat round
approximately 30 cm (11.8 in.) in diameter.

5.  Use a 6 cm (2.4 in.) cookie cutter or something similar
to cut out 8 small pizza bases from the dough. Place
the rounds on a tray and prick them thoroughly with a
fork.
 Cover the pizza rounds with pizza sauce and then
sprinkle the cheeses, ham, parsley and onion confit on
top.

6.  Put the mini pizzas on your now-hot pizza stone or
pizza pan and bake them for six minutes or until they
are crisp and golden-brown.
 You can serve these miniature thin-crust pizzas with
salad for a fairly light luncheon or get the children
involved for some pizza family fun. Children love
individually-sized foods and will probably be delighted
to “help” with rolling out the dough, cutting out the
small pizza bases and sprinkling the toppings.
