Pear Prosciutto Goat Cheese Pizza with Honey Drizzle

It has been way too long since I’ve talked about pizza, but now I just may overload you.
I recently got out Marcella Hazan’s Pizza Dough recipe and then got a little pizza crazy. We’ve been making pizza every day. I love playing the the dough and we even made a video making dough and will be embedding a video of this pizza here as soon as we clear the music copyright.
I’m always giving Retro Rose a lecture about eating too much pizza, trying to get her to cut down on the grains, but ask me how I’m doing with that. You know she was the first to arrive at my most recent pizza party, but while she sticks to the traditional, I like unusual toppings, and I tend to play around with fruit a lot.
Pears and prosciutto are a natural together, and last year I made prosciutto pear amuse bouche. That same combination with cheese and honey on a crispy, chewy pizza crust is even better.
Now this a pizza of two lives. It could almost be a dessert pizza because of the honey and the pears. However, it could just as easily be a main course pizza or an appetizer pizza. That’s up to you.

OMG. I need this pizza in my life for New Year’s Eve! What a great idea. Thanks Angela and Merry Christmas.
Wonderful combination of flavors and great execution as usual!
My challenge entry is somewhat similar in concept and pairing.
That would be wonderful to serve on New Year’s Eve. I may just do that!
I do a similar pizza with figs, but I love the idea of the pears! I’ll definitely try it when I fire up the wood fired oven this weekend!
That pizza sounds out of this world. There is just something special about goat cheese and pears. Yummy. We are having homemade Margherita pizza. Bet your party was a real hit!!!
