Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 4 ounces Goat cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 0.5 cup Artichoke hearts, chopped
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves, torn
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic glaze (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it onto a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.
Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil, covering the edges as well.
Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the dough, ensuring it’s spread out to distribute flavor.
Evenly scatter the shredded mozzarella cheese onto the dough, leaving a small crust border around the edge.
Dot the pizza with crumbled goat cheese for a creamy tangy flavor.
Distribute the halved cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, fresh spinach leaves, and chopped artichoke hearts across the pizza surface.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes over the toppings.
Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and crisp, and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.
Scatter fresh torn basil leaves over the top and drizzle with balsamic glaze for a hint of sweetness.
Slice into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy your gourmet vegetarian pizza!
