To make your pizza:

  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees
  • Line your baking tray with baking paper and lightly grease your paper with olive oil.
  • In a bowl add your flours, water, and salt and combine well. Pour your pizza ’dough’ onto the prepared tray and spread evenly using your hands.
  • Cover your pizza base with tomato passata and prepare your vegetables. Top your tomato covered based with all of your vegetables except for the kale and arugula leaves if using.
  • Sprinkle with herbs and bake for 20-30 minutes.
  • In the meantime, massage your kale leaves in oil (and set aside) and prepare your seed cheese.
  • Top your almost-baked pizza with the massaged kale leaves and your seed cheese. Reduce the temperature to 160 degrees and bake for another 20 minutes or until crispy and smelling irresistible.
  • Top with Arugula leaves or serve with fresh salad. Enjoy!
