Light and flavorful pizza with broccoli, peas, and cherry tomatoes—low in fat yet juicy! Whole‑grain dough and vegetables provide plenty of nutrients.

Ingredients

  • 200 g rye flour (Type 1150)
  • 200 g wheat flour Type 550
  • Salt
  • 0.5 cube Yeast
  • 300 g small broccoli (1 small head)
  • 4 Spring Onions
  • 100 g peas (frozen)
  • 200 g Cherry tomatoes
  • 0.5 bunch Frankfurt herbs
  • 250 g ricotta
  • black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Mix both flours and ½ tsp salt in a bowl, press a well in the center, crumble yeast into it.

  2. 2.

    Pour 250 ml lukewarm water over the mixture and knead with a hand mixer’s dough hooks until smooth. Cover and let rise in a warm spot for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3.

    Meanwhile clean and cut broccoli into small florets. Trim spring onions; slice green parts thinly and set aside, cut white parts into ~5 cm pieces.

  4. 4.

    Cook broccoli in boiling salted water for 2–3 minutes. Add onion pieces and peas, cook for another minute. Drain in a sieve, rinse briefly under running cold water, then drain well.

  5. 5.

    Wash tomatoes and halve them, set aside. Wash herbs, shake dry, pluck leaves and finely chop. In a bowl mix with ricotta, season with salt and pepper.

  6. 6.

    Cut a sheet of parchment paper to fit the baking tray. Roll out pizza dough onto it, then transfer the parchment to the tray.

  7. 7.

    Spread the herb‑ricotta mixture over the dough, smooth it. Distribute vegetable mix and tomatoes on top, bake in preheated oven at 225 °C (fan: 200 °C, gas: level 3–4) on the lowest rack for 15–20 minutes.

  8. 8.

    Remove pizza, lift parchment from tray. Sprinkle with reserved onion rings, cut into eight portions and serve immediately.
