I didn’t have olive oil so I used groundnut oil instead,plus I left out the herbs,I wanted to have the wholemeal base but with my own toppings ,I followed the instructions for the base and cooked it accordingly as per instructions it came out perfect ,I would recommend this pizza base to my friends, I used sweet chilli sauce instead of tomato purée,then added cheese and peppers ( red,yellow,green ) and mushrooms , Got to say it was yummy
