Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 store-bought or homemade (12-inch base) Pizza dough
- 0.5 cup Alfredo sauce
- 8 ounces Fresh mozzarella cheese
- 4 thin slices Prosciutto
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Baby arugula
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Cracked black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to a 12-inch circle. If using store-bought dough, follow package instructions for handling.
Spread the Alfredo sauce evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Tear the fresh mozzarella into small chunks and scatter them evenly over the Alfredo sauce.
Lay the slices of prosciutto across the pizza, slightly overlapping them as needed.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the pizza to enhance the creamy flavor.
Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Use parchment paper or a pizza peel if necessary.
Bake the pizza for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
While the pizza bakes, toss the arugula with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and cracked black pepper in a small bowl.
Once the pizza is out of the oven, let it cool for 2 minutes. Scatter the dressed arugula over the top of the pizza.
Slice the pizza into 8 wedges and serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your creamy Alfredo Prosciutto Pizza!
