    Spread the pesto thickly on the crust.

  • 8

    Drape the cheese over the pesto.

  • 9

    Sprinkle the pine nuts over the cheese.

  • 10

    Drizzle 1/2 Tbsp of olive oil on top of the pie.

  • 11

    And brush the crust with the other 1/2 Tbsp of olive oil.

  • 12

    Sprinkle a bit of corn meal on the top and sides of the crust.

  • 13

    Bake the pizza at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes.

  • 14

    Broil the pizza for 3 minutes to bubble the top cheese layer.

  • 15
