Pizza Hearts
What better surprise for kids on Valentines day or a birthday, than creating their favourite food (aka pizza) in the shape of little hearts? Make these pizza hearts for the kids or with the kids to add a bit of fun into meal times.
Pizza dough
- 375 grams plain flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 200 mls warm water
Pizza toppings
- 200 ml passata
- 200 grams cheddar cheese
- 200 grams mozzarella cheese
- 20 grams fresh spinach finely chopped
- 2 tomatoes sliced
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, maple syrup, olive oil and warm water. Knead gently until just combined.
Spread the dough out on a floured work surface using a rolling pin.
Cut heart shapes out of the dough with a heart shaped cookie cutter or a kitchen knife.
Spread a tablespoon of passata across the base of each pizza heart.
Add your chosen toppings including your cheeses. We have put some chopped spinach with grated cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, topped with a slice of fresh tomato.
Bake on the top shelf for 12-15 minutes or until golden. Enjoy!
