Ingredients

• 1 ball (about 250g) Pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 100 grams, diced Pancetta
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 100 milliliters Heavy cream
• 3 large Egg yolks
• 50 grams, grated Parmesan cheese
• 100 grams, shredded Mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons, freshly ground Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 240°C (475°F). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.

Step 2

Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness, then transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

In a medium skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the pancetta and cook until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the pancetta and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.

Step 5

In a bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg yolks, grated Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and salt.

Step 6

Brush the remaining olive oil over the pizza dough. Spread the garlic evenly over the top.

Step 7

Pour the cream mixture over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the cooked pancetta evenly over the top.

Step 8

Top the pizza with shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 9

Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before slicing and serving.
