Pizzette are simply mini pizzas. They can be made using a normal pizza dough base, but I make them using puff pastry (which they also do in Italy). They’re very easy to make, so children can help, and are a great snack\/light lunch for kids and adults. They also make a perfect aperitif or party food.<\/p>\n

3. Place on the baking parchment\/foil and onto a baking tray<\/p>\n
4. Beat the egg and brush over each circle<\/p>\n
5. Put the passata in a bowl and add oregano, salt and pepper to taste – you only need half a tablespoon of sauce on each disc so gauge how much passata you want to use. We do the lot and then turn the excess into a pasta sauce<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 6. Put half a tablespoon of the mixture in the middle of the disc leaving a border all around<\/p>\n 7. Add your toppings (suggestions below)<\/p>\n 8. Pop in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until the borders of the pizzette are nice and golden<\/p>\n 9. Let them cool a little before serving<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can mix and match here. The girls like plain tomato ones, ones with a sprinkle of grated cheese and ones with sliced black olive. I add a tiny pinch of extra oregano to each of these.<\/p>\n If you can get hold of it, a few cubes of provolone cheese makes a great topping.\u00a0A small piece of ham, an anchovy, a couple of cubes of pancetta, mushrooms…whatever you want, just don’t overload. You can even leave off with the tomato sauce and use half a teaspoon of\u00a0pesto\u00a0in the middle with a little cheese.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You might also like:<\/p>\nTopping suggestions<\/h2>\n
