Wm Carrot Pizza Recipes

CARROT PIZZA WITH FONTINA AND RED ONION

Steps:

• For the carrot purée:
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, about 5 minutes, then add wine and cook, stirring often, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium-low, add salt and 1 cup water, and stir to combine. Cover and simmer until carrots are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer mixture to a blender. Add mascarpone, cayenne, and 1/4 cup water. Remove stopper from lid or leave lid slightly ajar, cover with a towel (hot liquids can splatter), and purée until smooth.
• For the pizza:
• Place 2 overturned rimmed baking sheets in the upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat to 450°F.
• Divide dough in half on a lightly floured surface and form into 2 balls. Roll out balls into ovals about 6x10 inches in size (make sure they fit on baking sheets). Remove preheated sheets from oven and brush bottoms with oil. Carefully place dough on sheets and brush with more oil. Return to oven and bake until dough is beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Spread reserved carrot purée evenly on pizzas, then sprinkle with cheese and onion. Return to oven and bake pizzas, rotating the sheets and swapping their positions on the oven racks halfway through, until cheese is melted and bubbling, 10-12 minutes. Transfer pizzas to cutting boards, top with carrot fronds, and slice.

HONEY-ROASTED CARROT AND GOAT CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with foil.
• Toss carrot slices with 1 teaspoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss red onion with 1 teaspoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Put the carrots and onions on their own baking sheets.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
• While carrot and onion are roasting, combine goat cheese, egg yolk, garlic, and lemon zest in a bowl. Mix until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Remove vegetables from the oven. Toss carrots with honey and set aside. Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Spread the goat cheese mixture all over the crust, leaving about 1/4 inch from edge. Arrange carrot on the pizza and sprinkle with red onion.
• Bake pizza until cheese is melted and starting to brown, 13 to 15 minutes.
• While the pizza bakes, toss arugula with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Cut pizza into slices and top with the salad, or serve it on the side.

PUFF PASTRY PIZZA

Steps:

• For the crust: Slice the 2 pastry sheets in half down the middle. Place the halves on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment or baking mats.
• Preheat the oven to 415 degrees F, then start on the pizza toppings.
• For the toppings: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter and saute the mushrooms and garlic for 2 minutes. Pour in the wine and season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until the mushrooms are cooked down and the liquid is mostly gone, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• To build the pizzas: brush a thin layer of olive oil in the center of each puff pastry half, leaving a 1/2-inch border. On each piece of pastry, sprinkle on 1/4 cup of the mozzarella, again so that it covers all but a 1/2-inch border around the pastry. Sprinkle the cooked mushrooms on one piece of pastry. On the second, sprinkle on the halved tomatoes and black olives. On the third, lay the pepperoni slices and sliced pepperoncini. Press the toppings lightly into the cheese. Leave the fourth piece of pastry plain (just cheese).
• Bake for 15 minutes; the pastry could go crazy and puff up in areas here and there, but don't worry! It'll be fine.
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle the goat cheese crumbles and half the basil over the mushroom pizza. Sprinkle the remaining basil over the tomato pizza. Top the pepperoni pizza with the fresh oregano. Top the plain pizza with the prosciutto, arugula and Parmesan shards
• Slice each into smaller pieces and serve!
