Step 1
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F).
Step 2
On a floured surface, stretch the pizza dough into a thin round shape. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Spread the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the pizza dough, followed by the cream mixture, leaving a small border around the edges.

Add the fresh spinach leaves on top, followed by an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Step 9
Season the pizza with salt and black pepper.
