Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix the Dough Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the frothy yeast mixture along with olive oil.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Mix the ingredients together until a dough forms. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let the Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Assembling the Pizza

  1. 5

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  2. 6

    Shape the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out into a 12-inch circle.

  3. 7

    Add Toppings

    Transfer the rolled dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet. Arrange the sliced pears evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with crumbled Gorgonzola cheese and chopped walnuts.

  4. 8

    Bake the Pizza

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.

  5. 9

    Finish with Fresh Ingredients

    Remove the pizza from the oven and drizzle with honey and balsamic glaze. Top with fresh arugula before slicing.
