  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

  5. Preheat oven to 220°C.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to desired thickness.
  7. Spread the pesto sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  8. Sprinkle the steamed broccoli over the pesto sauce.
  9. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
  10. Bake the pizza in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Remove from oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
