Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. To prepare the ingredients, remove the pumpkin skin and chop the pumpkin into 2 cm chunks. Finley slice the roma tomatoes, slice the red onion into wedges, grate the mozzarella cheese, and wash the rocket leaves.

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 20 minutes, or until just tender.

Top the pizza bases
3

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

4

Transfer the pizza directly onto the oven wire racks (this ensures the bases go nice and crispy) and cook for 10 minutes or until the tomato has softened. Remove from the oven and top with dollops of the traditional pesto.

5

To serve, slice the pizza into wedges. For the grown ups, serve the rocket leaves on top of the pizza with a drizzle of olive oil.
