Description

Imagine a pizza that transcends the ordinary, a culinary creation designed for sharing and celebration. This pizza starts with a unique, tender base, yielding a delightful chewiness that perfectly complements the vibrant toppings to come. The crust, baked to golden-brown perfection, provides a sturdy yet subtly flavored foundation for the symphony of flavors that dance upon it.

Atop this delightful base, a medley of seasonal ingredients awaits. Envision the richness of creamy cheeses, their textures ranging from soft and yielding to firm and slightly tangy. These cheeses melt and meld together, creating a luscious blanket that smothers the pizza in comforting goodness.

Picture savory toppings, perhaps morsels of seasoned meats, each bite releasing a burst of umami that excites the palate. Or, if you prefer, a vibrant array of garden-fresh vegetables, each one carefully chosen for its unique flavor and texture. The sweetness of roasted peppers, the earthy notes of mushrooms, the slight bitterness of leafy greens – all come together in harmonious balance.

As you lift a slice, notice the interplay of colors and textures. The vibrant reds and greens of the toppings contrast beautifully with the golden crust and creamy cheese. The aroma is intoxicating, a blend of savory, sweet, and earthy notes that awakens the appetite.

The first bite is an explosion of flavor, a delightful combination of the chewy crust, the rich toppings, and the melted cheese. It's a pizza that invites conversation, laughter, and shared enjoyment. The pizza toppings are designed to be adaptable.

Feel free to customize the ingredients to suit your tastes and dietary preferences. Whether you prefer a meat-lover's delight or a vegetarian masterpiece, the possibilities are endless. Make it your own, experiment with different combinations, and create a pizza that is truly unique and unforgettable.

This adaptable recipe will become a staple in your home.

Instructions

    1.
    Add the grated mozzarella to a heat-proof bowl with the butter over a double boiler, stirring continuously until the mozzarella and butter have melted together.
    2.
    Transfer the melted cheese and butter mixture to a food processor along with 1 cup of the ground almonds and the cream cheese. Blend well until thoroughly combined.
    3.
    When the mixture is cool, add the egg to the food processor. Blend until well combined and smooth.
    4.
    Add the remaining ground almonds to the food processor and blend until you have a sticky dough.
    5.
    Transfer the dough into a clean bowl and allow to rest for 10 minutes before rolling and covering in plastic wrap. Transfer to the freezer for 15 minutes to firm.
    6.
    Whilst the base is chilling, mince the garlic and add to a small pan along with the passata. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the garlic is tender. Set aside.
    7.
    Finely slice the onion and add to a small pan with one tablespoon of olive oil and the balsamic vinegar. Fry gently for 5 minutes until the onion is tender. Set aside.
    8.
    Preheat the oven to 380 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large shallow oven tray with baking paper. Remove the dough from the freezer and place between two sheets of plastic wrap. Roll to an even thickness creating a circular base, the size of a large dinner plate.
    9.
    Transfer to the oven to bake for 10 minutes, until lightly golden. Remove the base from the oven and spread over the tomato sauce.
    10.
    Scatter over the spinach and arrange the onions over the pizza and crumble over the blue cheese.
    11.
    Tear the prosciutto and scatter over the pizza. Add the cranberries and finely chopped rosemary. Season the pizza with a little salt and pepper and drizzle with the remaining olive oil.
    12.
    Transfer to the oven to bake for a further 10 minutes until cooked through, the cheese is melted, and the ham is crisp.
