Pizzette with Goat Cheese and Ricotta

These vibrant goat cheese and ricotta pizzette are the ultimate vegetarian appetiser for any gathering. By combining tangy soft cheese with creamy ricotta, fresh basil, and a hint of lemon zest, you create a sophisticated topping that perfectly balances the sweetness of roasted cherry tomatoes. The crisp, golden dough bases provide a satisfying crunch, making these bite-sized treats as textures as they are colourful.

Ideal for hosting, most of the preparation for this dish can be done in advance to save time in the kitchen. The herbed cheese mixture can be made a day ahead, and the bases take just minutes to bake. Serve these elegant mini pizzas at a summer garden party or as a light starter before a Mediterranean-inspired meal. They are consistently a favourite with guests who appreciate fresh, homemade flavours.
