Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 550 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Lightly dust a clean surface with flour and divide the pizza dough in half or keep it whole for 1 large pizza.
- Roll each dough ball into a 9–10-inch circle and spread a thin layer of creme fraiche onto the pizza dough and top with roughly torn mozzarella.
- Gently tear large slices of prosciutto and place the slices around the pizza and layer the sliced figs on top and drizzle with olive oil.
- Transfer the pizza to the hot oven on either a pizza stone or baking sheet and bake until the crust is golden brown and cheese melts, about 7-10 minutes.
- Once done, garnish the pizza with a drizzle of aged balsamic and fresh basil leaves.
Notes
-
- Bring the pizza dough to room temperature before rolling out, which will make the dough easier to stretch out.
-
- Pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit for at least 30 minutes before cooking the pizza.
-
- A pizza stone is essential for a crispy crust, but a good alternative is using an upside down baking sheet.
- Yields 1 large pizza or 2 medium sized pizzas.
