Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  2. Unroll the pizza dough onto the prepared baking sheet. If needed, gently stretch the dough out to a roughly 12 x 8-inch rectangle. Gently roll about ½ inch of the dough around the edges inward to create a crust. Twist the corners to resemble the bent tassels of a magic carpet. Use a fork to prick holes all over the center of the crust. Brush the crust and “tassels” with the beaten egg.
  3. Bake the crust for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and increase the oven temperature to 425°F(220°C).
  4. On a separate baking sheet, toss the eggplant and yellow bell peppers with the olive oil, za’atar, cumin, cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon salt until well coated. Roast for 12–15 minutes, until the eggplant is beginning to soften and the bell pepper is tender, but not mushy.
  5. In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, and remaining ¾ teaspoon salt. If the sauce is too thick, add 2–3 teaspoons of water, a little at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
  6. Spread the hummus evenly across the pizza crust, staying inside the rolled edges. Arrange the roasted eggplant and bell peppers and the tomatoes on top. Drizzle with the yogurt-tahini sauce, then top with the pine nuts, parsley, and mint.
  7. Serve immediately.
  8. Enjoy!
