Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour Use unbleached for better flavor.
  • 1 tsp instant yeast
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.75 cup warm water Not too hot, to activate yeast.
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil Provides a rich flavor.
  • 0.5 cup pizza sauce
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese Use a good quality cheese for melting.
  • 0.5 cup cooked chicken Diced for easy topping.
  • 0.25 cup black olives Sliced.
  • 0.25 cup sweet corn
  • 0.25 cup red bell pepper Diced.
  • 0.25 cup green bell pepper Diced.

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Stir in the warm water and avocado oil until a shaggy dough forms.
  • Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8 minutes, until smooth and elastic. The dough should feel soft yet slightly tacky to the touch.
  • Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rest in a warm area for approximately 1 hour. It should double in size.
  • After rising, punch down the dough and divide it into 8 small balls. Use your hands to flatten each ball into mini pizza bases, pressing the centers down slightly to create a lip.
  • Spread a spoonful of pizza sauce evenly over each base. Allow the sauce to soak into the dough for added flavor.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the sauce, followed by the chicken, olives, corn, and diced peppers. Each mini pizza should be loaded with colorful toppings.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 220°C (425°F) for 10–12 minutes. You'll know they are ready when the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve warm. Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen!
