Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Italian sausage
- 1 cup Red seedless grapes
- 4 ounces Goat cheese
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Cornmeal (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat.
On a clean surface, sprinkle a light layer of cornmeal. Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch round or your preferred thickness. Transfer it to a pizza peel or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it into small chunks, and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In the same skillet, lightly roast the grapes over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, just until they start to blister. Set aside.
Brush the pizza dough with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge for the crust.
Distribute the cooked sausage and roasted grapes over the cheese. Crumble the goat cheese evenly across the pizza.
Sprinkle the chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper over the toppings for added flavor.
Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone if using). Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
