How to Make Buffalo Sweet Potato Blue Cheese Pizza

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix well.
  2. Sprinkle 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast over the flour. Add ½ cup warm water (105-115°F) and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Lightly oil a large bowl. Place the dough ball in the bowl, turning to coat with oil.
  5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for at least 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  6. Gently punch down the dough to release air bubbles. Let rest, covered, for 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C) with a pizza stone inside (or preheat a baking sheet).
  8. While the oven preheats, grate 1 medium sweet potato (about 1 cup grated).
  9. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to your desired thickness.
  10. Sprinkle cornmeal on the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Transfer the dough to the stone.
  11. Brush half of ½ cup buffalo wing sauce evenly over the dough.
  12. Spread the grated sweet potato evenly over the sauce.
  13. Brush on the remaining buffalo sauce and sprinkle with 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
  14. Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch closely!
  15. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with ¼ cup crumbled blue cheese.
  16. Let cool slightly, slice, and serve immediately.
