Ingredients
Pav Buns
- 8 Pav Buns
Pizza Sauce & Toppings
- 8 tbsp Pizza Sauce
- 1 medium Onion finely diced
- 1 medium Bell Peppers capsicum, finely diced
- 1 medium Tomato deseeded and finely diced
- 1/2 tsp Oregano dried
- 1/2 tsp Pepper Flakes red
Cheese
- 1/2 cup Cheese grated, processed
- 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese grated
Other
- 3 tbsp Butter melted, or use garlic butter for extra flavor
Instructions
Prepare the Pav Buns
- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly grease a baking tray. Cut the pav buns in half horizontally. Gently scoop out some of the soft bread from the center of each bun to create a well, leaving about 1/4-inch thickness at the bottom and sides.
Spread the Sauce and Cheese
- Brush the inside of each pav bun generously with melted butter. Spread 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce evenly into each well. Sprinkle a small amount of grated processed and mozzarella cheese into each well.
Add the Vegetables
- Fill each well with the diced onion, bell pepper, and tomato.
Season and Top
- Sprinkle each Pav Pizza with dried oregano and red pepper flakes. Top generously with the remaining grated cheese.
Bake and Serve
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the pav buns are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Pav Pizza Perfection
- For extra flavor, use garlic-infused butter instead of plain butter.
- Feel free to experiment with your favorite pizza toppings! Mushrooms, olives, or pepperoni would all be delicious additions.
- If you prefer a crispier base, you can toast the pav buns lightly in a pan before assembling the pizza.
- To ensure even cooking, arrange the pav buns in a single layer on the baking tray, leaving enough space between each one.
