Ingredients:
For the White Sauce:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup Parmigiano Reggiano, grated
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt to taste (about 1/2 tsp)
- Water as needed (about 1 cup)
For the Pizza:
- Happie organic sprouted spelt crust (store-bought or homemade)
- Organic extra virgin olive oil
- Fresh whole milk mozzarella, cubed
- Pickled jalapeños, sliced
- Ricotta cheese
Directions:
1. Prepare the White Sauce:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and minced garlic. Simmer for about 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
- Stir in the grated Parmigiano Reggiano and pepper. Continue stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Season with salt to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add water a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven according to the instructions for your sprouted spelt crust. If you're using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
3. Assemble the Pizza:
- Place the prepared crust on a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Brush a thin layer of organic extra virgin olive oil over the crust to enhance flavor and prevent sogginess.
- Spread a generous amount of the white sauce over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Evenly distribute the cubed fresh mozzarella over the sauce.
- Dollop spoonfuls of ricotta cheese across the pizza for creaminess.
- Scatter the sliced pickled jalapeños on top of the cheese.
4. Bake the Pizza:
- Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone).
- Bake according to the crust instructions, typically about 12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
5. Finishing Touches:
- Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven. Let it cool for a couple of minutes.
- Optionally, drizzle a little more organic extra virgin olive oil on top for added flavor.
- Slice and serve your delicious white pizza!
Enjoy!
