Ingredients

• 1 ball Pizza dough
• 2 medium Leek
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 4 ounces Goat cheese
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional)
• 1 tablespoon Cornmeal

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat up.

Step 2

Slice off the dark green tops and root ends of the leeks, then slice the white and light green parts into thin rounds. Rinse them thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and a pinch of salt. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized. Set aside.

Step 4

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and mince the garlic.

Step 5

On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. If you prefer a thicker crust, keep it slightly smaller.

Step 6

Sprinkle a thin layer of cornmeal on a piece of parchment paper. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Brush the dough with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and evenly spread the minced garlic over the top.

Step 8

Distribute the cooked leeks and halved cherry tomatoes over the pizza base, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 9

Crumble the goat cheese over the veggies and sprinkle with fresh thyme, black pepper, and an additional pinch of salt if needed. Optionally, grate Parmesan cheese over the top for extra flavor.

Step 10

Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
