Easy Pear, Prosciutto, and Gorgonzola Pizza
This Pear Prosciutto and Gorgonzola Pizza combines sweet pear, salty prosciutto, creamy cheese, and arugula for an easy 20-minute dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 pizza shell homemade or store bought
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil divided
- 4 ounces fresh mozzarella torn into pieces
- 3 ounces gorgonzola cheese crumbled
- 1 Anjou or Bosc pear thinly sliced
- 2 ounces prosciutto torn into pieces
- 1 cup baby arugula optional
- Balsamic glaze for serving, optional
- Freshly ground black pepper for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the oven. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven while it preheats, if desired.
- Assemble the pizza. Stretch or roll the pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Brush with 2 teaspoons olive oil. Top evenly with the mozzarella and gorgonzola, then arrange the thinly sliced pear over the cheese.
- Bake. Transfer the pizza to the hot pizza stone or a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
- Finish and serve. Top the hot pizza with prosciutto and, if using, baby arugula. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and balsamic glaze, then finish with freshly ground black pepper. Slice and serve immediately.
