Ingredients

  • 1 ball pizza dough

  • 6 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 ripe pear, cored and thinly sliced
  • 2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C) with a pizza stone inside for at least 30 minutes.

  4. Spread the shredded mozzarella evenly over the dough.
  5. Arrange the pear slices over the cheese.
  6. Sprinkle the crumbled feta evenly on top.
  7. Scatter the chopped walnuts over the pizza.
  8. Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone.
  9. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
  10. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped fresh chives, slice, and serve.

Notes

  • Drizzle with honey after baking for extra sweetness.
  • Top with fresh arugula for a peppery finish.
  • Substitute goat cheese or Gorgonzola for the feta if desired.
  • Add caramelized onions for additional depth of flavor.
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary can be sprinkled on before baking.
