Ingredients

• 1 ball (about 12-14 oz) Pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 2 cups (loosely packed) Baby spinach
• 1 cup (sliced, any variety like cremini or button) Mushrooms
• 1 small (thinly sliced) Red onion
• 4 ounces (crumbled) Goat cheese
• 1 cup (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons (grated) Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon (for dusting) Cornmeal or flour
• 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you are using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

Step 2

Lightly dust a clean work surface with cornmeal or flour and stretch the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.

Step 3

Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edges for the crust.

Step 4

In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough as the base layer.

Step 6

Top the pizza with the cooked spinach, sliced mushrooms, and red onions, spreading them out evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese across the pizza, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 8

Season the pizza with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes if using.

Step 9

Transfer the pizza to the oven (onto the pizza stone if using) and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crisp, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 2 minutes before slicing and serving.
