Instructions
Creating Roasted Red Grape Pizza is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
2. Roast Grapes: Toss the halved grapes with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a baking dish. Spread them out and roast in the oven for about 10-15 minutes until they are soft and caramelized.
3. Prepare Pizza Dough: While the grapes are roasting, roll out your pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
4. Spread Cheese: Evenly spread the ricotta cheese over the dough. Leave a small border for the crust.
5. Add Mozzarella: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the ricotta layer.
6. Top with Grapes: Once the grapes are done roasting, remove them from the oven and scatter them over the cheese.
7. Season: Sprinkle fresh thyme on top, and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
8. Bake Pizza: Place the pizza in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
9. Cool: Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
10. Drizzle Glaze: If using, drizzle balsamic glaze over the pizza for added flavor.
11. Garnish: Top with fresh arugula for a peppery crunch and vibrant color.
These steps will help you create a delicious Roasted Red Grape Pizza that will surely impress your guests.
