Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (250g) whole milk ricotta cheese
  • 1 tbsp (21g) honey
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 lb (450g) store-bought or homemade pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup (55g) shredded low-moisture mozzarella
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh blackberries
  • 3 oz (85g) thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 1 cup (30g) fresh baby arugula
  • 1/4 cup (10g) fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) balsamic glaze

Instructions:

  1. In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, honey, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and well-incorporated. Let this sit for 5 minutes to allow the honey to fully integrate into the cheese.
  2. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on parchment paper into a 12-inch circle.
  3. Spread the ricotta mixture evenly across the dough, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust. Sprinkle the mozzarella over the ricotta, then press the blackberries gently into the cheese.
  4. Slide the parchment onto your baking sheet or preheated stone. Bake for 8-11 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and the crust is a deep, mahogany-colored gold.
  5. Remove from the oven. Immediately drape the prosciutto slices over the hot cheese. Top with fresh arugula and torn basil, then drizzle the balsamic glaze in a zig-zag pattern across the top before slicing.
