Fresh Goat Cheese and Prosciutto Pizza

I used Trader Joe's whole wheat pizza dough. This made two medium sized pizzas. I rolled the dough out to make these thin crispy style pizzas. If you like your dough thicker, make smaller pizzas and do not roll the dough out as much.

pizza dough
1 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
1 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
thinly sliced prosciutto
soft fresh goat cheese
2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
pepper for seasoning
crushed red pepper flakes for seasoning
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Roll out dough to your desired doneness. Lay rolled out dough on a pizza stone or greased sheet pan. Bake in the oven for about 5 to 10 minutes. You need to pay attention and start checking the pizza after about 5 minutes. You are looking for the dough to begin to start to brown. It can turn to a burn quite easily, so keep an eye on it.

Remove from oven and spread sauce evenly. Season with pepper and crushed red pepper. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Tear apart prosciutto into smaller pieces and arrange on top. Return to the oven and back for about 8 to 12 minutes. Start checking the pizza at about 8 minutes. You are looking for the cheese to bubbly, starting to brown and the prosciutto to be crisp.

Once cooked, remove and top with goat cheese (crumble over the top) and finish with basil. Let rest on the pizza stone or sheet pan for a couple of minutes before you slice.

Serve and ENJOY!!!!
