Ingredients

  • 1 recipe Homemade Pizza Dough
  • ½ cup pizza sauce
  • 8 ounces burrata cheese
  • 3 ounces prosciutto
  • handful of fresh basil fried or torn into pieces
  • red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 500 degrees.
  • Thirty minutes before cooking the pizza, put your pizza stone in the oven.
  • Stretch out your pizza dough using your hands in a circular motion, then lay it on a flat surface and flatten it out using a rolling pin. If you have a pizza peel, sprinkle some flour on it and place the stretched out dough on the peel.
  • Once your dough is flat and ready to be heated, use a spoon to spread the pizza sauce all around the dough leaving a little bit for the crust.
  • Pop your pizza peel in the oven and slide it over the stone for ten minutes.
  • After ten minutes, pull out the pizza and sprinkle the creamy burrata on top of the pie.
  • Put your pizza back in the oven for another 3-4 minutes.
  • When the cheese is just starting to melt, take it out and top with prosciutto and the fried basil, salt, and red pepper flakes. Cut into 6-8 slices and serve immediately.
