Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pizza dough
- 1 medium Eggplant
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 4 ounces Feta cheese
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch thick rounds and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the eggplant slices, then sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 15 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and tender.
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and transfer to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
Brush the surface of the dough with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and evenly distribute the minced garlic.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough as the base layer.
Arrange the roasted eggplant slices and cherry tomato halves (cut side up) over the cheese.
Crumble the feta cheese evenly across the pizza and sprinkle with dried oregano, additional black pepper, and a touch of salt if desired.
Bake the pizza in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
