Alfredo Pizza
Description
This Alfredo Pizza begins with a ball of pizza dough stretched into a round shape to fit a pizza pan. The dough is coated evenly with a homemade Alfredo sauce, providing a rich and creamy base instead of the traditional tomato sauce. The pizza is topped with grated low-moisture mozzarella and diced fresh mozzarella, resulting in a blend of melting textures and mild milky flavors.
After sprinkling with Parmesan cheese and a bit of kosher salt, the pizza is baked on the lowest oven rack at 500°F until the crust is golden brown and the cheeses are melted and bubbly, approximately 9 to 11 minutes. Finally, the pizza is garnished with thinly sliced chives, offering a subtle color contrast and delicate onion note that complements the creamy sauce.
This pizza offers a creamy, cheese-forward option with a crisp crust and fresh topping, suitable for those looking for an alternative to traditional tomato-based pizzas.
