Method
Dough Preparation
Activate Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
Mix Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the frothy yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Let Dough Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
White Sauce Preparation
Combine Ingredients
In a medium bowl, mix ricotta cheese, minced garlic, grated parmesan cheese, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Assembling the Pizza
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
Shape Dough
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
Add Sauce
Spread the white sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough.
Add Toppings
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by chopped spinach and fresh basil leaves. Drizzle with olive oil.
Bake Pizza
Transfer the pizza to a baking tray or pizza stone and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Serve
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, slice, and serve hot.
