pizzas topped with a sweet fig spread, a spicy caramelized fig & shallot mixture, fresh mozzarella, shredded fontina cheese, prosciutto, and arugula

yield: 2 (10”) pizzas

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 DeLallo Pizza Dough Mix
  • olive oil
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced
  • kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp white wine vinegar (plus an extra splash)
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh oregano
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • ½ lb fresh figs, stemmed + halved
  • ½ cup DeLallo Fig Spread
  • ½ lb fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
  • 6 oz fontina cheese, shredded
  • 4 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 2 oz arugula
  • fresh grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Follow steps 1 and 2 for the Pizza Dough Mix.
  2. Meanwhile, heat a 12” skillet over medium heat. Add enough olive oil to coat the bottom. Add the shallots. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often. Season with a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to low and add the white wine vinegar. Cook for another 5 minutes. Stir in the oregano and red pepper flakes.
  3. Raise the heat back to medium. Add the figs. Cook for 3 minutes or so, until the figs are softened. Set aside.
  4. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  5. Once the dough has risen, divide it into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a 10” circle on a lightly oiled pizza stone.
  6. For each pizza, drizzle the dough with olive oil and rub to coat. Spread half of the fig jam evenly across the dough, leaving a ½” border for the crust. Top with half of the fresh mozzarella (season the cheese with a pinch of salt), half of the caramelized fig mixture, and half of the fontina cheese.
  7. Bake each pizza for 15-18 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the crust is golden.
  8. Arrange the prosciutto over top of the cheese. Toss the arugula with a light drizzle of olive oil and a splash of white wine vinegar. Arrange the arugula onto the pizzas and finish with freshly grated parmesan cheese before slicing.

Notes

If fresh figs aren’t in season or you cannot find them, you can omit them (the fig spread will give plenty of sweet fig flavor) and just finish the shallot mixture after step two.
