  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Мethod of preparation

1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well. 2. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the rolled dough to a pizza peel or baking sheet. 3. Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil. 4. Spread the ricotta cheese evenly over the pizza base, leaving about a 1-inch border for the crust. 5. Arrange the sliced apricots over the ricotta cheese. 6. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top. 7. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. 8. Carefully transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. 9. Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. 10. Drizzle honey evenly over the pizza, and then sprinkle fresh chopped mint leaves on top. 11. Slice and serve the pizza warm, enjoying the sweet and savory combination of flavors.
