Ingredients
for
- For Pizza Dough
- ½ cup warm water (105 to 110º F)
- 2 tsps Dry yeast
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 Tbsps olive oil
- For Pizza Topping
- 6 tsps extra virgin olive oil
- ½ cup prepared Basil pesto
- 16 ozs mixed Heirloom tomato (or other seasonal)
- fine Sea salt (to taste)
- freshly ground Black pepper (to taste)
- 1 handful fresh Sprout (divided)
- 2 cloves garlic cloves (finely minced)
Preparation steps
1.
In a small bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let stand until the yeast dissolves, about 5 minutes.
2.
Mix the flour and salt in a food processor. Blend in the oil. With the machine running, add the yeast mixture and blend just until the dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer the dough to a large oiled bowl and turn the dough to coat with the oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm draft-free area until the dough doubles in volume, about 1 hour. Punch the down dough and divide into 2 equal balls.
3.
Position 1 oven rack in the center and the second rack on the bottom of the oven and preheat to 450ºF. Sprinkle cornmeal over 2 rimless baking sheets. Roll out each dough ball into a 10 to 11-inch round. Transfer 1 dough to each prepared baking sheet.
4.
Drizzle 2 teaspoons of oil over each pizza dough. Spread half of the prepared pesto over the pizza dough, leaving a 1-inch border around each pizza. Arrange the tomato slices in a single layer and sprinkle with remaining pesto. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Arrange sprouts on top, drizzle with a little more olive oil and sprinkle with garlic.
5.
Bake for about 15 minutes or until the crusts are crisp and brown on the bottom. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of oil over each pizza. Sprinkle with additional sprouts and salt. Cut the pizza into wedges and serve immediately.
