Description

Creamy burrata, fresh peas, and vibrant asparagus pesto make this pizza a springtime delight. Perfect for a casual weeknight dinner or a fun gathering.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 recipe pizza dough
  • 0.75 cups - 1 cup (177 ml - 237 ml) asparagus pesto
  • 8 ounces (227 g) burrata
  • 0.5 cups (118 ml) fresh english peas
  • cornmeal

Instructions

  1. Place the pizza stone on a rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat to 500°F (260°C).
  2. Once risen, divide the dough into 2 or 4 pieces, form into balls, and let rest for 30 minutes.
  3. On a well-floured surface, form each ball into a circle by stretching with your hands (working from the center out). You can then flatten further with a rolling pin.
  4. Carefully move the flattened dough onto a peel dusted with cornmeal.
  5. Top with sauce, a few slices of burrata, and peas.
  6. Bake one pizza at a time (5 minutes for small pizzas, 8-10 minutes for medium pizzas).

Notes

  • To prevent soggy crust, pre-bake the pizza crust for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
  • If asparagus is unavailable, substitute with a vibrant green pesto like basil or spinach.
  • For easy cleanup, use parchment paper on your pizza peel.
