Pear & Gorgonzola Pizza
Sweet. Powerful. Innovative. Who says fruit doesn’t belong on pizza? It does when you’re craving that sweet-meets-savory flavor combination, which is precisely what this pie is. You’ll dig the candy-like transformation of your oven-crusted pears, particularly when they’re contrasted with some tangy, melted Gorgonzola. Serve and impress—yourself.
Makes 2 10-12″ pizzas
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 ripe pears, sliced into ¼” thick slices
- 1 cup gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 Tbsp fresh rosemary, divided
- 2 rounds of pizza dough
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 500°F. If using a pizza stone, allow the stone to heat up along with the oven for a half hour before baking on it.
- Stretch out your dough onto a pizza peel dusted with flour. If you don’t have a peel and stone, use a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Oil the parchment with a little olive oil so your pizza doesn’t stick.
- Distribute the sliced pears evenly on the top of the dough.
- Scatter the Gorgonzola cheese on top of the pears.
- Sprinkle with fresh rosemary (1 tbsp per pizza)
- Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil.
- Slide your pizza into the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and drizzle with maple syrup.
