Ingredients
-
your favorite pizza dough
-
olive oil, as needed
-
1 cup fresh ricotta cheese (227 g)
-
salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
-
1 tablespoon
fresh chopped rosemary (3 g)
-
1 tablespoon
fresh chopped thyme (3 g)
-
1 tablespoon
fresh chopped oregano (3 g)
-
1
small onion, very thinly sliced (170 g)
-
3
cloves garlic, very thinly sliced (15 g)
-
1 cup
thinly sliced fresh mozzarella (250 g)
-
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 have three kinds of hot sauce in my purse. I have a soft spot for making people their favorite dessert, especially if it's wrapped in a pastry crust. My newest cookbook, Savory Baking, came out in Fall of 2022 - is full of recipes to translate a love of baking into recipes for breakfast, dinner, and everything in between!
