Ingredients

  • 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1-2 ripe pears, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • Olive oil, for brushing
  • Fresh arugula or basil, for garnish
  • Honey, for drizzling
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Directions

Prepare the Pizza Dough

  • Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness, then transfer it to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  • Brush the dough lightly with olive oil to promote a golden, crispy crust.

Add the Toppings

  • Arrange the pear slices evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles and shredded mozzarella (if using) on top.
  • Season with a touch of freshly cracked black pepper.

Bake the Pizza

  • Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Garnish and Serve

  • Remove the pizza from the oven and drizzle with honey for a touch of sweetness. Garnish with fresh arugula or basil for added color and flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!
