Cook Time15 Minutes
Ingredients
3 medium sized carrots
140g (1 cup) flour
Dunnes Stores Pizza Sauce
Sprinkle grated mozzarella
Dried Italian herbs
Fresh basil leaves
Directions
If your little one loves pizza, then you’ll love this easy recipe 😋 These mini pizzas are so soft and the perfect finger food for baby led weaning or as an afterschool snack or lunchbox filler for older kids. They are also such a great way to get your kids to eat more carrots.
INGREDIENTS
- 3 medium sized carrots
- 140g (1 cup) flour
Toppings:
- Dunnes Stores Pizza Sauce
- Sprinkle grated mozzarella
- Dried Italian herbs
- Fresh basil leaves
METHOD
- Preheat oven to 180ºC.
- Cut the carrots into slices and add to a pot of hot water. Cook until soft, then drain and add to a bowl. Mash until smooth.
- Add the flour and stir well until fully combined.
- Lightly flour a work surface and knead gently. If the mixture is too wet, add a little extra flour until it comes together into a dough. Roll until the dough is about 5mm thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut into mini pizzas, then lay on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Then remove from the oven and add a little pizza sauce, top with cheese and add back into the oven for a further 5 minutes.
- Top with a little basil to serve and the leftover pizza sauce (if you have any).
