Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) on the convection setting. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin into a rectangular shape, folding up the edges slightly to form a border.

Step 2
Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and cover with tomato slices, overlapping them slightly. Cover the entire base. Season with salt and bake on a pizza stone for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown, puffed up, and the tomatoes are slightly caramelized.

Step 3
Remove from the oven, scatter the mozzarella on top, drizzle with a little pesto, cut into triangular pieces, and serve immediately on a wooden pizza paddle.
