Do you know my sourdough pizza with different toppings? It has an unusual topping with an unusual taste. I have topped my sourdough pizza in different ways. Just try it with a mushroom and onion topping or with a leek sauce. This combines vegetables with a hearty bread flavor. After all, a sourdough pizza is made from the dough of sourdough bread. The only difference is that it takes longer to rise the dough. But it’s worth it.

A new creation of a sourdough pizza. I’m always trying out new ideas. This time I’ve dared to try a different kind of pizza. With a savory topping, it tastes completely different to what you are used to from a conventional pizza.

Ingredients
Ingredients for the dough
- 300 g whole spelt flour
- 40 g whole spelt sourdough
- 3 g salt
- 200 ml lukewarm water
Ingredients for the topping
- 2 onions
- 250 g champignon

Instructions
Pizza dough with sourdough
- Mix all the ingredients for the dough together, cover and leave to rise for 30 minutes.
- Then slap and fold 8 times. In other words, gently slap the dough with your hands on a lightly floured surface and pull it upwards. Then fold, first folding to the right, then to the left, then roll up and shape into a ball. Start again from the beginning.
- Place in a bowl, cover and leave to rise overnight at room temperature for 12 – 20 hours.
- The next day, flour a baking surface and slide the dough onto it. Cover and leave to rest for 20 minutes.
- Cut off 4 – 6 small pieces. Flour the surface again and again. Stretch the dough, roll it up and form round balls. Then roll out the dough into small pizzas.
- The dough should then be covered and left to rest for at least 1 hour or longer.
Covering
- To make the onion sauce with mushrooms, peel and finely chop the onions.
- Place the onions in a hot stainless steel pan. Leave a little on the bottom of the pan and then add a little water to cover them. Simmer until the water has evaporated. Then fry a little more without stirring. Top up with water and stir.
- Clean and chop the mushrooms. Add to the onion mixture and simmer until the mushrooms are cooked through. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Then mix 2 teaspoons of flour with a little cold water in a cup, add to the hot mixture and bring to the boil briefly.
- Do the same with the leek. Wash and chop the leeks. Boil in water until soft. Then also make a creamy sauce by mixing some flour in a cup of cold water and then adding this to the hot mixture. Bring to the boil briefly. Season to taste with salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg.
Finishing
- Place the rolled-out pizza dough pieces on a baking tray lined with baking paper and top each with the different sauces.
- Bake the pizza slices in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius top/bottom heat for approx. 10 – 15 minutes.
