Top the dough with a couple of spoons of tapenade dotted around the dough and fill in the gaps with crumbled blue cheese, figs and ham. Finish with fresh thyme.
Bake for 3 mins and then turn the pizza around. Bake for a further 2-3 minutes until the base is crispy and the cheese melts. Finish with a drizzle of chilli oil.
