Ingredients
- 500 grams pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for dusting)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 150 grams gorgonzola cheese
- 150 grams cherry tomatoes
- 10 leaves fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough to about 5mm (1/4 inch) thickness.
Step 3
Using a 7-8cm (3-inch) round cutter or the rim of a glass, cut out mini pizza bases from the dough. Gather the scraps, re-roll, and repeat until you've used up the dough.
Step 4
Place the pizzette bases onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each.
Step 5
Brush each base lightly with olive oil to achieve a golden crust during baking.
Step 6
Crumble the gorgonzola cheese evenly across the pizzettes, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 7
Slice the cherry tomatoes in halves and place one or two halves on each pizzette, cut side up.
Step 8
Season the pizzettes with a pinch of kosher salt and a sprinkle of black pepper.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crisp, and the gorgonzola has melted beautifully.
Step 10
Remove the pizzettes from the oven and immediately top each one with a fresh basil leaf for a burst of bright flavor.
Step 11
Serve warm and enjoy!
