Orange pizza makes the world go round!

For the pizza dough, check our pizza dough recipe.

INGREDIENTS - makes 2

400 gr of roughly chopped pumpkin

1 tsp of spicy smoked paprika

1/2 tsp of nutmeg

1/2 tsp of ground ginger

olive oil

pepper and salt

pickled red onions

roughly chopped almonds

1 tbsp of dille

pink peppers

PREPARATION

Preheat your oven to 180C. Put the pumpkin in a baking tray and spray with olive oil. When the oven is heated, bake the pumpkin for about 40 minutes. Let cool down.

Roll out your pizza dough: you can do this by hand, by gently stretching from the inside with the ball of your hand or with a rolling pin (which is a lot easier).

Heat up the oven to 220C conventional or 200C fan.

Put the cooled pumpkin, spicy smoked paprika, nutmeg and ginger in a blender. Season with pepper and salt. Blend until smooth.

Spread the pumpkin mash over the pizza dough. Decorate with the almonds, pickled red onions, chopped up dille and pink peppers.

Bake the pizza for about 15 minutes or until the sides get brown.
