How to Make Badda Bing Pizza With Pesto Esque Sauce
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Lightly grease a square baking pan (approximately 9x13 inches).
- In a bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Gradually add ½ cup of warm water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
- Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan. Prick the dough surface with a fork several times.
- For the pesto-esque sauce: Combine ½ cup fresh basil leaves, ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 cloves garlic, 2 tablespoons pine nuts (or walnuts), and ¼ cup olive oil in a food processor. Blend until smooth, adding more olive oil if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Spread the pesto sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border.
- Evenly distribute your choice of toppings: about 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, ½ cup cherry tomatoes (halved), ½ cup sliced bell peppers, ¼ cup sliced red onion.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
