Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. To prepare the ingredients, remove the pumpkin skin and cut the pumpkin into 2 cm pieces. Slice the roma tomatoes, cut the red onion into thin wedges, and flake the Parmesan cheese.

Bake the pumpkin

2

Toss the pumpkin in the olive oil and place on a lined oven tray. Season with salt and pepper and cook in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Scatter the pepitas over the half-cooked pumpkin and cook for a further 5 minutes.

Top the pizzas

3

Place the wholemeal pizza bases rough side down on a flat surface. Spread the tomato paste across the base of each pizza. Top with the tomato slices, red onion, roast pumpkin and pepitas.

4

Transfer the pizza directly onto the oven wire racks and cook for 10 minutes, or until the bases are crispy. Remove from the oven.

Top with the flaked Parmesan cheese

5

To serve, top with dollops of the traditional pesto, mixed salad leaves and flaked Parmesan cheese.
