Ingredients Of Christmas Tree Pizza
- 1 pizza dough (2 boules)
- 1 red pepper
- 1/2 red onion
- 1/2 cup basil pesto (purchased, homemade or vegan pesto)
- 2 mozzarella cheese, shredded
- Kosher salt
How to Make Christmas Tree Pizza
- 1.Prepare the dough using either the stand mixer or food processor methods (you also can knead by hand).
- 2.Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 550°F.
- 3.Prepare the toppings: Dice the red pepper. Thinly slice the red onion, then rinse it under cool water and pat it dry (which removes some of the bite).
- 4.When the oven is ready, roll out the dough into a triangle shape, adding a small rectangle for a trunk. Place the dough on a floured pizza peel. (Note: in this case, the conveyor pizza peel works very well for larger trees like the one pictured. If using a standard peel or a well-floured flat surface, smaller trees are easier to slide onto the stone.)
- 5.Quickly assemble the pizza: Spread a thin layer of pesto, then sprinkle with cheese. Add the “decorations” of red onions and peppers. Sprinkle with kosher salt.
- 6.Transfer the pizza to the oven on the pizza peel, and bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, then serve.
