Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (10-12 inches in diameter) Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1.5 cups, shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 4 ounces, crumbled Goat cheese
- 2 large, sliced into strips Roasted red peppers
- 1 handful, chopped Fresh basil
- 2 tablespoons (optional, for drizzling) Balsamic glaze
- 1 tablespoon (for dusting) Cornmeal
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out your pizza dough to a 10-12 inch circle.
If using a baking sheet, sprinkle it with cornmeal to prevent the dough from sticking. Alternatively, if using a pizza peel and stone, sprinkle the peel with cornmeal before placing the dough on it.
Brush the rolled-out pizza dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ensuring an even coating at the edges.
Sprinkle minced garlic evenly over the crust to infuse with flavor.
Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving about 1 inch of crust around the edges.
Dot the pizza with crumbled goat cheese, distributing it evenly across the mozzarella layer.
Scatter the roasted red pepper strips over the top of the cheese evenly.
Carefully transfer the pizza to your preheated baking surface. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for a minute. Garnish with fresh chopped basil and drizzle with balsamic glaze, if desired.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your CPK-inspired gourmet creation!
