Piadina Pizza Recipes

Mains

Using Piadina as a base for pizzas is a great idea if you’re looking for a lighter option for lunch or dinner, or if you don’t have much time but still want a nutritious meal. They’re also great fun for the family as children can get involved with making them and picking out their favourite toppings.

Pick your Piadina Pizza!

Using Piadina as a pizza base means that they get nice and crispy, perfect for those who prefer a thinner base over a thicker doughier one. It is also a fantastic way to use up your last few remaining Piadina, along with some cupboard staples.

While we have chosen fairly classic toppings for our Piadina pizzas, you can pick and choose whichever toppings tickle your tastebuds. Other ideas include a Mediterranean feast of a black olive tapenade base, grilled artichoke quarters, semi-dried tomatoes and crumbled feta, or indulge with ribbons of courgette, smoky pancetta lardons and a finishing drizzle of truffle oil.
