Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (approximately 12 inches in diameter) Pizza dough
- 6 whole Fresh figs
- 2 medium Yellow onions
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 ounces Goat cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Arugula
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic glaze
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle and set aside.
Slice the onions thinly. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with salt. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 15 minutes, or until the onions are caramelized and golden brown. Set aside to cool.
Wash and slice the fresh figs into thin rounds. Set aside.
Lightly dust a pizza peel or another flat surface with flour. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto it.
Brush 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Top the dough with an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese and scattered dollops of goat cheese.
Distribute the caramelized onions evenly over the cheese layer, followed by the sliced fresh figs.
Slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crisp.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before topping it with a handful of fresh arugula.
Drizzle the pizza with balsamic glaze and sprinkle with black pepper to taste.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your gourmet pizza!
