Directions

1
To prepare the dough, heat the water in the microwave for 30 seconds, add the crumbled pressed yeast and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Place the flour on the countertop, make a hole in the center and add the previous mixture and the oil. We remove the liquids while we are incorporating the flour from the outside. Before adding all the flour to the mixture, add the salt. We continue kneading for one minute or until a homogeneous dough is obtained.

We can let the dough rise in a bowl sprinkled with flour and covered with a clean cloth for half an hour, but this is optional. Divide the dough into three and spread each of them on the baking tray lined with parchment paper or sprinkled with flour. Cover the base with the basil pesto and spread small pieces of broccoli, zucchini cubes and mozzarella cheese on the surface.

Drizzle with a splash of extra virgin olive oil (optional), season and cook on the base of the oven, preheated to 300ºC, for eight minutes or until the base is cooked to our liking. Remove the honor and spread the blue cheese and fresh oregano over the surface when serving.
