Recipe Cook-Along for Kids - MINI PIZZAS with Lauren - Kids Learn to Cook

Get all of your ingredients out, wash your hands and put on your apron. An adult should preheat the oven to 180°C on a fan oven setting.

Make the tomato sauce by placing a frying pan on the hob and adding the tomato passata, tomato paste, mixed herbs along with a pinch of salt and sugar. Turn the heat to a low heat and mix the sauce for 5-6 minutes until simmering. When finished, turn the heat off.

Prepare the toppings by grating the cheddar cheese or ripping the mozzarella ball into small blobs.

Cut your chosen toppings into small pieces, using a knife and chopping board.

Lightly sprinkle a clean, flat surface with plain flour and place a portion of pizza dough on it. Sprinkle some flour over the rolling pin and roll the dough out to a circular pizza shape.

Line the trays with parchment paper or lightly grease them using some olive oil.

Carefully lift the pizza dough circle onto the baking tray.

Spoon some of the tomato mixture onto the pizza base and spread it out near to the edge.

Spread your cheese over the tomato sauce and then add the small pieces of pizza toppings.
