Ingredients

  • 2 pizza dough portions
  • 125 g mozzarella
  • 1 pear
  • 50 g blue cheese
  • 2 tbsp chopped pecans
  • extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • Stretch out the pizza dough. Thinly slice the mozzarella and spread all over the pizza base. 
  • Slice the pear thin and lay pear slices all over, trying to distribute it so that every slice of pizza will have the same amount of pear. 
  • Crumble or cut the blue cheese, depending on texture of the blue cheese of choice, and spread all over pizza, in between pear slices.
  • Chop the pecans with a knife and spread to top other ingredients.
  • Pour a drizzle of olive oil as a finishing touch before the pizza goes into the oven.
  • Bake at 250°C (480°F) until the cheese has melted and the pizza crust has taken a golden colour. If using a pizza stone, spread some semolina on the pizza peel to prevent the dough from sticking to it. Baking time may vary depending on pizza thickness and oven temperature. An average baking time of a thin pizza is 15 minutes in a home oven.
