Ingredients

• 2 cups plain flour (all-purpose flour)
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda / bi-carb soda (, sifted)
• 1/2 tsp cooking/kosher salt
• 1 large egg ((2 oz))
• 1 cup milk ((full or low fat))
• 1/4 cup sour cream (, or plain yogurt)
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 cup shredded cheese ( (colby, cheddar, Monterey Jack, Devondale "3 cheese blend"))
• 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese, ( same as above)
• 1/2 cup pizza sauce (, store bought or homemade (any of them))
• 1/4 red onion (, finely sliced)
• 1/2 green capsicum / bell pepper (, finely sliced)
• 1/4 cup sliced kalamata olives
• 2 oz pepperoni slices ((about 1/2 cup))

Method

1. Heat the oven to 350°F, spray a 9 x 13 in metal pan with oil and line it with baking paper.
2. Whisk the plain flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl.
3. In a second bowl whisk the egg, milk, sour cream and olive oil until they come together smoothly.
4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry bowl and stir with a spatula until the flour is mostly absorbed, then fold in 1 cup of the shredded cheese and stir just until no dry flour shows; a few small lumps are fine.
5. Scrape the batter into the lined pan, level it out, spread the pizza sauce over the surface and scatter over the remaining 1 1/2 cups of cheese.
6. Lay the red onion slices, green capsicum, kalamata olives and pepperoni over the cheese in that order.
7. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes, then cover the pan with a baking tray or foil and bake for 15 minutes more.
8. Rest the pizza bread in its pan for 10 minutes, lift it out on the paper onto a rack for another 10 minutes, then cut it into pieces.
