Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 0.75 cup sweet corn kernels (fresh or canned, drained)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 large ripe avocado, diced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.25 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.25 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat.
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Brush the surface of the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, leaving about 1 inch around the edge for the crust.
Sprinkle an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough, followed by the shredded cheddar cheese.
Top the pizza with diced yellow and red bell peppers, sweet corn, cherry tomatoes, and thinly sliced red onion.
Carefully transfer the pizza on parchment paper onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
While the pizza is baking, prepare the avocado by dicing it and tossing it with a pinch of salt, black pepper, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Once the pizza is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Scatter the diced avocado and chopped cilantro across the top.
Optionally, sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes for a hint of heat.
Slice and serve the pizza immediately, enjoying the combination of fresh and warm ingredients!
