Pizza with zucchini and burrata

Ingredients for 2 people

Ingredients · Servings 2
  • 500 g flour
  • 300 g lukewarm water
  • 7 gr gist
  • 10 g salt
  • A splash of olive oil
  • 75 gr mascarpone
  • 2 tbsp green pesto
  • 0,5 courgette
  • 150 g artichokes (from a jar)
  • 2 bowls of burrata
  • 40 gr arugula
  • 10 g fresh basil
  • Salt and pepper
Method · 2 h 10 min
  1. Preheat the pizza stone to the highest setting of your oven, using top and bottom heat. For me, this is 250 degrees. If you don't have a pizza stone, you can of course bake this pizza on a baking sheet.
  2. I made the dough in my food processor. (Or choose ready-made pizza dough.) Mix the flour, salt, and yeast together and add part of the water. The yeast and salt should not touch each other beforehand; naturally, this happens during mixing.
  3. Let the mixer run with the dough hook on the lowest setting. If the dough is too dry, add some extra water. Finally, add a small splash of olive oil.
  4. The dough is ready when it forms a ball that detaches from the sides. It is okay if it still feels a bit sticky.
  5. Let the dough rise for about 1 hour in a warm place under a damp tea towel; the dough has risen properly when it has doubled in volume.
  6. Divide the dough into 4 pieces and form them into balls. Let them rest for about half an hour under a piece of plastic wrap or a damp tea towel.
  7. In the meantime, mix the mascarpone with the pesto.
  8. Roll out the balls of dough into pizzas and spread the pesto mixture on the pizzas.
  9. Slice the zucchini into thin ribbons using a mandoline. Distribute the zucchini over the pizza.
  10. Season the pizzas with salt and pepper and top them with the artichokes.
  11. Bake the pizzas in the oven for 7 minutes at a temperature of 250 degrees Celsius.
  12. Garnish the vegetarian pizzas with the burrata, arugula, and some fresh basil.
