After some back and forth, it turned out that Chris actually learned to cook from scratch. After training as a chef, he was drawn out into the world. One year in New Zealand and nine months in Canada and the USA. He was always on the road with the mobile home. With breaks in between as a cook. So a pro!

Baking pizzas in the motorhome – this is how you can do it on the go!

Do you love pizza and often travel in your motorhome? Then you know that baking in a small RV can be a real challenge. But don't worry, with a few tricks you can make delicious pizza even when you're traveling.

First the question of space:

There is often little space in the compact motorhome kitchen. It helps to have everything you need ready beforehand. This way you avoid chaos and have everything at hand. Choose ingredients that don't take up much space and are easy to handle. Ready-made dough is a practical alternative to making it yourself.

Another challenge is the oven. Many mobile homes don't have a built-in oven. The Omnia oven is a great solution here. It's small, handy and perfect for the mobile home. You just put it on the stove and you're ready to go.

Now to bake:

Make sure to preheat the Omnia oven properly. This makes the pizza nice and crispy. Because of the limited size, it's best to bake smaller pizzas. This also has the advantage that everyone can top their pizza according to their taste.

There are no limits to your creativity when it comes to toppings. Whether classic with tomato sauce and cheese or unusual with different toppings - try out what you like. The same applies here: simplicity wins. Less is often more so that the pizza doesn't get too heavy.

Finally, another tip:

Be patient. It takes a little longer in the Omnia oven than in a normal oven. But the wait is worth it! This means your pizza will be a pleasure even in the motorhome.

Questions and answers about baking pizza in the Omnia

Why is the Omnia oven particularly suitable for baking pizza in a motorhome?

The Omnia oven is compact, lightweight, and can be used directly on a gas stove, making it ideal for small camping kitchens. It's not a replacement for a traditional oven, but it allows for even cooking even without a fixed oven—ideal for on-the-go pizzas.

What ingredients do I need to make pizza in my RV using your recipe?

For the recipe with ready-made dough, you'll need a pizza kit with ready-made dough and pizza sauce, 80g salami, 80g ham, an onion, corn, grated cheese, and pepper. You'll also need the silicone mold for the Omnia and a gas stove.

How long does it take to bake the pizza in the Omnia and what do I need to pay attention to?

The pizza bakes in the Omnia for about 20 to 25 minutes. You should preheat the oven thoroughly beforehand (about 5 minutes on high heat) and rotate the Omnia 90° every 10 minutes to ensure even heat distribution. You should also keep the lid closed and be careful when opening it to avoid burning yourself from the hot steam.

What is the best way to clean the Omnia oven after use?

First, remove any food residue. Then, clean the Omnia's mold with warm water and a mild dish soap solution. Avoid harsh cleaners to avoid damaging the coating.

What tips are there for saving space and preserving ingredients when baking pizza in a motorhome?

Use ready-made dough instead of homemade yeast dough to save effort and space. Buy tomato sauce in small cans or tetra packs so it takes up less space. Use vacuum-packed sausages and cheeses to maximize shelf life and save space. Small spice containers or pouches help keep your spice assortment compact. Fresh herbs in small pots or on the windowsill of your RV add flavor without taking up space.

Can I make pizza in my motorhome without an Omnia oven?

Yes, that's possible. Some campers use a nonstick pan with a lid. This allows the dough to cook in the pan, and the toppings to melt due to the heat under the lid. However, the pizza won't turn out as airy and crispy as in the Omnia.

Which pizza toppings are particularly suitable for on the go?

Ingredients that keep well and are easy to store are practical: salami, ham, canned tuna, olives, canned corn, or grated cheese. Fresh ingredients like peppers or mushrooms add variety but should be used promptly.

What do I do if the pizza doesn't cook evenly in the Omnia?

Make sure to rotate the Omnia every 10 minutes during baking to ensure even heat distribution. Also, don't set the flame too high—medium heat is sufficient to cook the dough evenly without burning the base.

Can you make the dough yourself when traveling in a motorhome?

Yes, it's possible. You can prepare classic yeast dough and store it in the refrigerator in your camper van. Even easier is a quark and oil dough, which doesn't require any rising time. However, ready-made dough from the refrigerated section is more convenient when you're on the go and have limited space.

Are there any vegetarian or vegan ideas for pizza in a motorhome?

Vegetarians can choose toppings with vegetables like zucchini, peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, or spinach. Vegans can also opt for plant-based cheese or cashew cream. A topping with olives, artichokes, and arugula is also a flavorful and light alternative.
