Sweet and Spicy ‘Pizza’ with Chocolate Sauce

Method for pizza crust:

1. Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius
2. Sprinkle a small amount of polenta onto a pizza stone to avoid the crust from sticking
3. In a large bowl place the self-raising flour, salt, mixed spice, cinnamon, sugar and raisins and stir until well combined
4. Create a well in the centre of the dry ingredients
5. Pour into the centre of the well, the water, olive oil, zest of the orange and the apple sauce
6. Using a wooden spoon, mix the ingredients, starting from the centre and working your way toward the sides of the bowl. Using your hands, knead the dough until it all comes together in a large ball
7. Place the dough in the centre of the pizza stone and using your hands and fingers, spread the dough across. Using a rolling pin dusted with flour, roll the dough gently to cover the stone – leaving a few centimetres from the edge. Tidy the edges up by gently pushing the dough into place using the back of a spoon
8. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes.
9. Drizzle the chocolate sauce over the crust. Cut into slices and serve with little pots of the remaining chocolate sauce and serve immediately.
