Quickly knead together the dough ingredients until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover and let stand at room temperature for about ten minutes.

Divide the dough into six equal-sized pieces. Knead each piece once more by hand and shape into a ball. Cover and let stand at room temperature for another 45 minutes.

About 20 minutes before baking, place a ceramic baking stone in the oven (shelf level 1) and heat to 275°C pizza setting. Season crème fraîche or sour cream to taste with pepper and salt.

Cut the tomatoes in half, cut the mushrooms into quarters and slice the sweet pepper and courgette thinly. Either chop the onions coarsely country-style or slice them finely, depending on your preference.

Slice the pear thinly. In a bowl, blend the goat cheese rounds to make a thick crème. Spread crème fraîche/sour cream onto each dough circle and top with 2 to 3 pear slices. Top each tarte with small dabs of goat cheese.

Before topping the balls of dough, cut them in half and roll them out as thinly as possible on a floured work surface. Transfer one dough circle to a pizza peel, spread with crème fraîche or sour cream and top with the desired ingredients.

Bake the tarte flambée for 4 to 6 minutes until crispy. Then top the vegetable tarte flambée with parmesan and arugula and distribute pesto on top. Finish off the sweet-and-savoury tarte flambée with Parma ham and drizzle with a little honey, if desired.
