Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made pizza dough
  • 2 pears, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 150g Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
  • Fresh arugula for garnish
  • Balsamic glaze for drizzling (optional)

Мethod of preparation

Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C), ensuring it's hot enough to give the pizza crust a perfect crunch. Lightly flour your workspace and roll out the pizza dough into your desired shape, then transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

In a skillet over medium heat, add the butter and once melted, introduce the sliced pears. Stir in the brown sugar, allowing the pears to caramelize gently for about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Brush the rolled-out dough with olive oil, then scatter the caramelized pears evenly over the surface. Add crumbles of Gorgonzola cheese and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.

Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the crust is golden and cheese has melted beautifully. Once out of the oven, garnish with fresh arugula and if desired, drizzle with a balsamic glaze.

Your Caramelized Pear & Gorgonzola Pizza is ready to serve. Slice it up and watch as the combination of flavors takes you on a memorable gastronomic journey.
