Author Notes
Fresh ricotta and good fresh mozzarella make all the difference in the world in this super garlicky, oniony pizza. —Erin McDowell
Ingredients
-
your favorite pizza dough
-
olive oil, as needed
-
1 cup fresh ricotta cheese
-
salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
-
1 tablespoon
fresh chopped rosemary
-
1 tablespoon
fresh chopped thyme
-
1 tablespoon
fresh chopped oregano
-
1
small onion, very thinly sliced
-
3
cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
-
1 cup
thinly sliced fresh mozzarella
-
red pepper flakes, to taste
Directions
-
Lightly oil the dough and transfer it to a baking sheet. Stipple and stretch the dough until it’s about 1/2 inch thick. Let rest about 15 minutes.
-
Stipple and stretch the dough again, and oil the edges. In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, salt, pepper, and herbs. Spread evenly onto the crust.
-
Sprinkle the onion, garlic, and mozzarella on top of the ricotta. Bake in a 400 degree oven until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden, about 15-20 minutes. Let cool slightly before cutting. Garnish with red pepper flakes.
I always carry three kinds of hot sauce in my purse. I have a soft spot for making people their favorite dessert, especially if it's pie. My first cookbook, The Fearless Baker, is out on October 24, 2017.
