Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (approximately 12-inch size) pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup (crumbled) goat cheese
- 1 small (thinly sliced into rounds) zucchini
- 1 cup (halved) cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 2 sliced thinly green onions
- 1 handful fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 cup (store-bought or homemade) green goddess dressing
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon (optional) crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat as well.
Lightly flour a work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
Brush the entire surface of the pizza dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly across the dough.
Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Layer the zucchini slices, cherry tomato halves, and baby spinach on top of the cheese. Distribute the crumbled goat cheese evenly across the pizza.
Season the pizza with salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top.
Carefully transfer the pizza to the oven. If using a baking sheet, place it directly in the oven. If using a pizza stone, slide the pizza onto the preheated stone using the pizza peel.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Top the pizza with fresh basil leaves and sliced green onions.
Drizzle the green goddess dressing over the pizza in a zig-zag pattern or serve it on the side for dipping.
Slice the pizza into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your fresh and flavorful Goddess Pizza!
