Pizza with Spinach and Ricotta Cheese
Spinach and ricotta make this pizza recipe delicious.
Prep Time: 15M
Cooking Time: 10M
Serves: Makes 1
Ingredients:
- 1 ball pizza dough
- all-purpose flour, for dusting
- semolina flour or cornmeal
- 2-3 tbsp tomato pur�e or passata
- 8oz (225g) spinach, wilted and well drained
- 2-3 tbsp ricotta cheese
- sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 475�F (245�C). Put a heavy baking tray in the oven to get hot. (They both need to be really hot before cooking the pizza.)
- Place the dough on a floured surface and use a rolling pin to roll it out as thin as you can-about 10-12in (25-30cm) in diameter. Brush the hot baking tray with oil, sprinkle with semolina, and place the dough on top.
- Add the tomato sauce over the pizza and smooth it out evenly with the back of a spoon, then spread the spinach on top. Dot with small spoonfuls of ricotta, season with salt and pepper, then bake for 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy.
