Pizza Dough Method
If you don’t have much time, grab a premade pizza base at your local grocery store, or hand make your own pizza dough following the simple steps below. Some shops even carry premade pizza dough in balls.
- Whisk yeast and lukewarm water in a jug. Leave sitting for roughly five minutes.
- Add flour and salt in a large bowl. Create a well in the centre of the flour. Pour in the liquid yeast mixture and the oil.
- Using dough mixer or hands, gently mix dough until smooth. Place pizza dough on a lightly floured work surface and then knead by hand for five minutes.
- Lightly oil a bowl, and place mixture in and cover with plastic wrap. Leave in a warm place to rise until the dough doubles in size.
- Pour dough mix out onto a clean, floured surface. Now hand knead gently for another five minutes.
- Divide dough mixture into equal sized balls. Hand stretch or roll out the bases to the expected size.
- Spread some flour on kitchen bench before rolling, in order to prevent sticking.
TIP: We have other dough recipes if you would like to try your hand at sourdough, poolish or more.
Tomato Pizza Sauce Method
You can make this delicious pizza sauce following the simple steps below, or you can purchase a pizza sauce at your local store.

Preparing Nutella Pizza
Preheat your oven to roughly 500 degrees.
Roll out the dough to either slightly smaller than your pizza stone or tray.
Alternatively, if you have a pizza peel, roll out to be smaller than that.
You start by spreading the sauce around. This pizza calls for Nutella Cream. Spread the Nutella Cream evenly using the back of a large spoon or ladle.
Then start adding the largest ingredients, then work your way down. The last is any cheese topping, such as Mozzarella, which you should evenly cover the other toppings with, and then finally any herbs.
Toppings to put on this pizza are;
- Banana Slices
- Strawberries
This pizza is very tasty as is, or you could enjoy it with a fresh salad?
Baking time
Put the Nutella pizza in the middle of your oven (on a stone if you have one) and set timer for 10 minutes.
After roughly 10 minutes, check on the pizza.
Pizza should be ready within 15 minutes. However, allow it to cook to personal taste.
About Banana
Bananas are actually a berry, not a fruit. They contain seeds inside the flesh, not on the outside. Even more strange, they don’t grow on trees, but rather on a herb. This is because a typical tree has a wood stem, unlike a banana plant, which is made of fibres.
Bananas are a fantastic source of potassium, many minerals and vitamins, and are often referred to as a superfood. Bananas are the the fourth most-valuable food crop in the world. Unsurprisingly, Americans eat 3 million tons of bananas each year.
Pizza Tools
When making Nutella Pizza, we always recommend that you use whatever tools you are able to get your hands on. Our basic pizza tools are…
Pastry Brush
If you ever coat your dough in water, oil, eggs or more, then you need a pastry brush. These brushes tend to be cheap to have and very handy to use.
Kitchen Scales
Do you have quality digital kitchen scales? It’s a great tool for any chef or pizza cook.
Pizza Scissors
These may seem like a weird tool to some, however other pizzaiolo’s swear by using scissors instead of a traditional pizza cutter.
Strawberries
Strawberries are firm, sweet and juicy red fruit, and is one of over 20 species of flowering plants in the Rose family. Strawberries don’t need to be red; there are plenty of other colours for strawberries.
Strawberries contain more vitamin C than oranges. They are low in calories and also high in vitamins C, B6 and K. Believe it or not, some people have Fragariaphobia, which is a fear of strawberries.
