Craving something warm, cheesy, and packed with flavor? These mini tuna pizzas are everything you love about pizza but in a cute, snackable size! Made with a soft homemade dough, a simple tomato sauce, and a tasty tuna and cheese filling, they’re perfect for lunch, picnics, or a fun dinner idea. The dough is enriched with yogurt and honey for a soft, slightly tangy base that bakes up beautifully golden. Each mini pizza is filled with a slice of cheese, sealed, rolled in fine semolina for texture, and topped with a savory mix of tuna, olives, corn, and red onion. After a quick rise, they’re finished in the oven until perfectly golden and melty. These oven-baked pizza snacks are easy to make and even easier to love, especially when served warm and fresh from the oven!

Stappenplan
1 Add the lukewarm water, yeast, and honey to a deep bowl. Mix well and let it rest for 5 minutes. |
2 Add the sunflower oil and yogurt. Mix until combined. Add the flour and salt. Knead for 10–12 minutes until smooth. Cover and let the dough rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size. |
3 Meanwhile, mix the tuna with finely chopped red onion, corn, and sliced green and black olives in a bowl. Set aside. |
4 Mix the tomato paste, water, and oregano until smooth. |
5 After rising, deflate the dough and divide it into 9 equal pieces, about 75 grams each. Shape into balls. |
6 Take one ball and roll it out into a flat circle. |
7 Spoon some tomato sauce into the center and place a slice of cheese on top. Fold the edges toward the center and pinch to seal. |
8 Sprinkle some fine semolina on a plate and roll the filled dough through it. Place it on your work surface and gently roll it flat. |
9 Place the dough on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush with tomato paste, sprinkle grated cheese over it, and top with the tuna mixture. Optionally, add a slice of cherry tomato and a bit of cheese spread. Let the mini pizzas rise for 30 minutes. |
10 Bake the pizzas in a preheated oven at 220 °C (428°F top and bottom heat) for 12–18 minutes, until golden brown. |
“I made these mini pizzas but swapped the tuna for canned salmon, and they turned out incredibly delicious dish! The salmon gave them a slightly richer flavor that worked perfectly with the cheese and sauce. Try it!
