🍕 Roasted Garlic Spinach White Pizza 🍕
This Roasted Garlic Spinach White Pizza is a delicious twist on the classic pizza, loaded with creamy cheese, roasted garlic, and fresh spinach. Perfect for a cozy night in!
Ingredients:
1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 cups fresh spinach leaves
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Cornmeal (optional, for dusting)
Instructions:
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.
Prepare Garlic Oil:
In a small pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant and lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Prepare Dough:
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. If using a pizza stone, dust a pizza peel with cornmeal to prevent sticking, and place the rolled-out dough on it. Alternatively, place the dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Assemble Pizza:
Brush the garlic-infused olive oil over the entire surface of the pizza dough.
Spread the ricotta cheese evenly over the dough, followed by a layer of shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan.
Top with fresh spinach leaves.
Sprinkle dried oregano, salt, and pepper over the top.
Bake:
Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone or place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Serve:
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
This pizza is sure to be a hit with its creamy, garlicky goodness and fresh spinach topping! 🍕🌿🧄
