Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan) / 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Make the dough:
In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add warm water and olive oil, then mix until a dough forms.
Knead for 2–3 minutes until smooth.
3. Shape the bunny:

Cut two smaller oval shapes for ears and attach them to the top of the head.
Place the shaped dough onto the baking tray.
4. Add the toppings:
Spread the tomato passata over the dough.
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly.
Arrange the peppers, courgette slices, sweetcorn, cherry tomatoes, and red onion on top.
5. Make the bunny’s face:
Use two black olives for the eyes.
Place a cherry tomato or olive in the centre for the nose.
Arrange thin strips of red pepper or onion for whiskers.
