Discover Nara Smith’s Ultimate Homemade Pizza Recipe for Toddlers

In a delightful twist, Nara Smith’s toddlers requested pizza for lunch, a surprising choice given their usual preferences. Embracing their enthusiasm, Nara embarked on crafting a homemade pizza that turned into a mouthwatering journey from scratch to perfection.

The process began with a simple yet essential dough preparation. Combining flour, water, yeast, and salt, Nara let the mixture rise for about two hours. While the dough was rising, she took on the challenge of making fresh mozzarella cheese. She warmed milk and mixed it with citric acid before bringing it to the right temperature, straining, stretching, and forming it into perfect mozzarella balls.

With the cheese resting in cold water, Nara moved on to creating the rest of the pizza ingredients. Opting for a plain cheese pizza as requested by her toddlers, she made a straightforward yet flavorful tomato sauce. To add a unique twist, she also prepared hot honey by simmering honey with chili for 30-40 minutes, transferring it to a squeeze bottle for an easy drizzle.

Once the dough doubled in size, Nara floured her work surface, divided the dough into four parts, and rolled each into a pizza shape. She carefully sliced the homemade mozzarella and began assembling the pizza. Starting with a layer of tomato sauce, she generously added the mozzarella before baking it to golden perfection for 6-8 minutes.

The final touch was a drizzle of the hot honey, adding a sweet and spicy kick to the pizza. The excitement was palpable as Nara and her toddlers eagerly sliced and enjoyed their homemade creation.
