Yield:
6 servings

Ingredients

Garlic-herbed crusted dough

1½ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon active dry yeast

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 clove garlic, halved

¼ teaspoon  salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

⅓ to ½ cup warm water (120°F to 130°F)

Nonstick cooking spray

Parmesan sauce

2 tablespoons salted butter

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

⅛ teaspoon ground white pepper

1¼ cups whole milk

¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Pizza

2 ounces thinly slices prosciutto  

2 ounces chopped prosciutto

2 ounces crumbled goat cheese

½ pear, cored and thinly sliced

½ cup watercress or other microgreens

Honey, for serving

Directions

  1. For pizza dough, in a food processor combine flour, yeast, basil, garlic and salt. Cover and process for 10 seconds or until combined. Add olive oil. With the machine running, slowly pour in only enough water through feed tube to form a ball of dough. To knead the dough, process for 1 minute. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape into a ball. Cover with a slightly damp towel and let rest for 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray; set aside. For sauce, in a medium saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and white pepper. Cook and whisk for 1 minute. Whisk in milk, ¼ cup at a time, until combined. Cook and whisk until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; stir in Parmesan cheese until melted.
  3. For pizza, press ball of dough evenly into a rectangle on prepared baking sheet. Spread 6 tablespoons of white sauce to within ½ inch of edge.* Top with sliced and chopped prosciutto, goat cheese and pear slices.
  4. Bake for 17 minutes or until edges are golden, rotating baking sheet halfway through. Remove from oven and cool. Top with watercress or microgreens. Drizzle with honey to serve.

*Note: Cover and refrigerate remaining sauce for up to 1 week. Use sauce for pizza at another time or toss with hot pasta.
