Description
A delicious twist on traditional pizza featuring creamy ricotta, mozzarella, and savory prosciutto, garnished with fresh basil.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pizza dough
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces prosciutto, sliced
- Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
- Olive oil, for drizzling
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
- Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Spread the ricotta cheese evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the ricotta.
- Arrange the prosciutto slices over the cheese.
- Season with salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
Notes
Roll the dough thin for a crispier crust. Feel free to add toppings like artichokes or arugula for more flavor. Let the pizza cool a bit after baking for better cheese consistency.
