• Keep pizza dough in packaging and place in a bowl of hot tap water (not boiling) until the dough is warm, 20 minutes. • Halve each ball of pizza dough, then set aside to rest for at least 1 hour, until dough increases in size (speed this up by covering each dough ball with a bowl). • Dust some flour over a clean surface. Flour your hands and a rolling pin, then stretch and roll each dough ball into a 25cm circle. • Transfer pizza bases to a lined oven tray (divide between two trays if your bases are overlapping).
TIP: The dough needs to be warm to increase in size. Resting the dough improves the pizza base texture.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Slice courgette into rounds. Thinly slice white and light green parts of leek. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook diced bacon, courgette and leek until tender, 3-4 minutes. • In the last minute of cook time, add baby leaves and stir until wilted. Transfer to a plate.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook tomato paste, Nan's special seasoning and the butter until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the water, then stir to combine and simmer until slightly thickened, 1 minute. Season to taste.
• Spread tomato sauce evenly across the bases using the back of a spoon. • Top with bacon veggie mixture. Sprinkle over shredded Cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.
Little cooks: Kids can help assemble the pizzas!
• Bake pizzas until cheese is melted, golden and cooked through, 15-20 minutes.
• Divide two-cheese bacon and leek pizzas between plates. • Drizzle over BBQ sauce to serve. Enjoy!
