How to Make Asparagus Pizza
- Gently shape the pizza dough into a ball by pulling the sides down and folding them into the center.
- Place the dough ball in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a tea towel, and let it rest for 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, gently press and stretch the dough into a 12-inch circle or your desired pizza shape.
- Lightly dust a baking sheet with cornmeal. Carefully transfer the pizza dough to the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic.
- Brush the garlic oil evenly over the pizza dough.
- Spread the prepared asparagus evenly over the dough.
- Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
