Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Base

  • 1 raw pizza base

Toppings

  • 2/3 cup fig preserves
  • 1 1/2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
  • 3–4 slices prosciutto, torn into smaller bits
  • 2 ounces crumbled goat cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats to make sure it becomes hot enough. This step helps to achieve a crispy crust.
  2. Prepare the Pizza Base: Roll out your pizza dough as thinly as possible into a rectangle or oval shape on a silicone mat or parchment paper. Make sure the thickness is even to ensure uniform cooking throughout the baking process.
  3. Add Toppings: Evenly spread the fig jam all over the rolled-out dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges to prevent spillage while baking. Then sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the fig jam. Scatter the torn prosciutto slices over the cheese and finish by adding crumbled goat cheese for extra flavor and creaminess.
  4. Bake the Pizza: Carefully transfer the pizza with the silicone mat or parchment paper onto the preheated pizza stone in the oven. Bake for 7-9 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown on top, and the crust is crisp.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the pizza carefully from the oven once baked. Let it cool for a few minutes to allow the toppings to settle and make slicing easier. Cut into slices and serve immediately for the best experience.

Notes

  • Using a pizza stone is recommended to get a crispier crust, but you can bake on a baking sheet if unavailable.
  • You can substitute fig preserves with any other sweet jam like apricot or raspberry for different flavor variations.
  • Make sure the dough is rolled thinly for quicker baking and crisp crust.
  • Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing to avoid toppings sliding off.
  • Store any leftovers refrigerated and reheat in an oven or toaster oven for best results.
