Ingredients

Scale

For the Dough

  • 250 grams Pizza dough
  • Salt, to taste
  • Warm water, as needed
  • Yeast, as needed

For the Toppings

  • 150 grams Goat cheese, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 100 grams Cherry tomatoes (optional)
  • A handful of Arugula (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Mix flour, salt, and yeast in a bowl. Gradually add warm water and stir to form a dough ball. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth. Cover with a cloth and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
  2. Shape the Pizza Base: After rising, punch down the dough to release air. Roll it out on a floured surface into a circular shape, adjusting thickness to your preference.
  3. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 220°C (428°F) to ensure it is sufficiently hot for baking the pizza.
  4. Prepare the Toppings: Slice the goat cheese and gather other toppings such as honey, fresh rosemary, and optional cherry tomatoes.
  5. Assemble the Pizza: Place the rolled dough on a baking tray or pizza stone. Brush a thin layer of olive oil over the surface. Evenly arrange goat cheese slices on top. Drizzle honey over the cheese and sprinkle with fresh rosemary, salt, and pepper. Add cherry tomatoes if desired.
  6. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh arugula, slice, and serve warm for the best flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute fresh rosemary with dried rosemary if fresh is unavailable.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes before baking.
  • Allow the dough to rise properly for a fluffier crust.
  • Use a pizza stone if available to achieve a crispier base.
  • Honey drizzling can be adjusted to taste depending on sweetness preference.
