How to Make Spinach And Ricotta Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C) with a baking stone on the 2nd-lowest rack and another rack in the upper third.
  2. Lightly dust a 12-inch pizza screen or perforated pizza pan with flour.
  3. Gently stretch the pizza dough to a 12-inch round on the prepared pan.
  4. Brush the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  5. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  6. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  7. Distribute the chopped spinach evenly over the sauce and sprinkle with minced garlic.
  8. Top with the sliced mozzarella cheese.
  9. Using a teaspoon, evenly distribute small dollops of ricotta cheese over the mozzarella.
  10. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  11. Carefully slide the pizza (on the screen/pan) onto the upper oven rack.
  12. Bake for 10 minutes, until the crust is crisp and golden brown.

  14. Bake for another 3-5 minutes, rotating halfway, until the bottom crust is golden brown and cooked through.
  15. Remove the pizza from the oven using the pizza peel and transfer it to a cutting board.
  16. Arrange the tomato slices (optional) over the top.
  17. Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy!
