Pear ’n’ Prosciutto Pizza

Pear ’n’ Prosciutto Pizza: A treat!

You’d never find this slightly unusual pizza at the grocery store! Expect to pay at least $15 for it in a fine restaurant, but far, far less if you make it yourself. You can always buy a pizza crust, but I hope you’ll try one of the excellent recipes for pizza dough you’ll find at One Click: Pizza or at Pizza: One Click. I made a 12-in. (30 cm) pizza using the quantities I’ve suggested, but add extra and heap it high, if you wish! 

Pear ’n’ Prosciutto Pizza:

One 12-in. (30 cm) thin-crust pizza, purchased or homemade

2 or 3 ripe pears, each sliced into 16 wedges

3 thin slices Prosciutto, each cut into 4 or 5 pieces

One 4 oz. (113 g) pkg. soft goat cheese, crumbled

1 oz. (35 g) Stilton or soft blue cheese, crumbled

Preheat oven to 400 deg. F. Layer ingredients over unbaked pizza shell in order given. Bake 20 min. until cheese has melted and crust has browned.

Get it while it’s hot! Slice into 8 wedges.
