Ingredients For the Pizza Bread Batter
Here, I am making my bread at home for a homemade touch, but store-bought bread is also an option.
2 cups all-purpose flour (plain flour)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda (sifted)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
One large egg
1 cup milk (full or low-fat)
1/4 cup of sour cream
Three tablespoons olive oil
1 cup shredded cheese
Ingredients For The Toppings
1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese
1/2 cup pizza sauce (store-bought or homemade)
1/4 red onion
1/2 green capsicum
1/4 cup of sliced olives
50g pepperoni slices
Instructions
Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. Spray a metal pan with oil and put parchment paper.
Whisk Dry Ingredients: Take a large mixing bowl and whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt.
Whisk Wet Ingredients: Take another bowl and whisk together the egg, milk, sour cream (or yogurt), and olive oil until well combined.
Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a rubber spatula to mix until the flour is mostly incorporated, but it’s okay if you still see a bit of flour. Add the shredded cheese and stir until no dry flour remains. It’s alright if there are small lumps; they will bake out.
Assemble the Pizza Bread: Place the batter on the prepared baking pan and evenly spread the assembled pizza bread. Remember, it’s not too thick because it will rise during baking. Spread pizza sauce over the surface of the batter. Sprinkle with cheese, followed by the sliced onion, capsicum, olives, and pepperoni.
Bake: Bake the pizza bread uncovered for 25 minutes. Then, cover it with a baking tray or use foil paper and bake for an additional 15 minutes. This prevents the cheese from getting too brown.
Cool and Slice: After baking, allow the pizza bread to cool for about 10 minutes before transferring it onto a cooling rack using the parchment paper overhang. Let the bread cool for another 10 minutes before slicing.
Serving: Enjoy your Homemade Pizza Bread at room temperature for a savory muffin-like treat. Warm it in the oven, drizzle pizza bread with olive oil, and sprinkle a pinch of oregano for an extra flavor.
Additional Tips For Bread Pizza 
Baking Soda Substitute: If you don’t have baking soda, replace it with 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder. Remember that the bread will be less soft and springy in texture.
Cheese Variety: You can choose any cheese that melts well and has a flavorful profile. While I typically advocate shredding your cheese, using pre-shredded cheese is acceptable for convenience in this quick recipe. If you opt for mozzarella, add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to enhance the flavor.
Vegetables: If you wish to add veggies instead of any meat, you can use different vegetables to make a vegetable pizza, but remember to use only a few vegetables in the topping; otherwise, the bread will become soggy.
Pan Lining: When lining the pan, covering the long sides and the base with a single sheet of parchment paper is sufficient.
Storage: Store your Homemade Pizza Bread in an airtight bowl in the refrigerator, and it will remain fresh for up to 4 days. For the best taste and texture, enjoy it at room temperature.
These additional tips will help you maximize your Pizza Bread and ensure it’s enjoyed fully!
