Blackberry Prosciutto Pizza

Sweet blackberries, savory prosciutto, and fresh flavors come together in this unexpected pizza recipe that is elevated and effortless.

Serves: 12-14 inch round pizza

Ingredients

  • 1 (14 to 16-inch) unbaked pizza crust
  • 1 Tbsp. garlic infused olive oil
  • 2 cups blackberries about 1 pint
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 10 large fresh basil leaves roughly chopped
  • 10 slices Prosciutto *very thinly sliced*
  • *Hot honey to drizzle on after cooked*

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 500℉ (260)℃. Place a 14- to 16-inch pizza stone in the oven to preheat.
  2. Prepare 1 (14 to 16-inch) unbaked pizza crust. Brush the crust with 1 tablespoon garlic olive oil.
  3. In a small bowl, mash half of the 2 cups blackberries Spread the mashed berries evenly over the oiled crust. Sprinkle the crust with 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese.
  4. Lay the thin slices of Prosciutto over the top of the mozzarella & parmesan cheeses.
  5. Halve the remaining blackberries and scatter them over the pizza. Add 1/2 cup ricotta cheese in heaping teaspoon-sized spoonfuls across the surface.
  6. Transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone. You may need to flour or cornmeal your pizza stone, to keep pizza dough from sticking to the stone. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and starting to brown.
  7. While the pizza is baking roughly chop or chiffonade (cut into strips) 10 large fresh basil leaves. In the final 1 to 2 minutes of baking, scatter the basil over the top of the pizza.
  8. Remove from the oven and let rest for 1 to 2 minutes. Slice into 8 wedges and serve hot.
  9. For added "oomph", drizzle with Hot Honey (or a few crushed red chili flakes) while pizza is resting.
