This Squash Blossom Pizza is an easy and delicious white pizza recipe to enjoy during the summertime. It uses a store-bought pizza dough and just requires 20 minutes to make. But if you feel more ambitious to make your own pizza dough, then try this simple 1-Hour Pizza Dough. It’s my go-to recipe and takes only one hour (hence the name) to make and rise.
While most squash blossom recipes are somewhat fussy and involve stuffing and deep-frying, this one is a breeze to make once you have the dough ready. And the best part? This white pizza recipe features a simple yet flavorful ricotta garlic base, Pecorino Romano, and squash blossoms. It is flavored with basil, honey, and of course, freshly ground black pepper. This beautiful summer pizza is perfect for lunch or even as a light dinner with a green salad on the side. Enjoy!
To make the Squash Blossom Pizza, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 500 °F and sprinkle a baking sheet with 1 teaspoon cornmeal. Set aside.
In a bowl, stir together 1 ½ cups ricotta cheese, ½ a cup shredded Pecorino Romano, 1 egg yolk, 1 minced clove garlic, and ¼ a cup coarsely chopped basil. Season with ½ a teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 14-inch circle.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and brush with some olive oil.
Dollop the ricotta garlic mixture over the dough and spread with the back of a spoon, leaving a ½-inch border.
Bake for 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, drizzle the squash blossoms with the remaining olive oil and toss to coat
Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle the squash blossoms over the top.
Bake 2-3 minutes more until the blossoms are wilted and the crust is nicely browned.
Drizzle the hot pizza with honey and sprinkle with finishing salt. Serve and enjoy!
