This post may contain affiliate links.


Ricotta & Mozzarella Pizza has got to be one of the best pizzas on the planet. The creamy cheese and savory sauce are a match made in heaven. Watch my recipe video HERE.



We love this pizza with a little drizzle of hot honey. This spicy and sweet addition takes this pizza combo over the top. Get the dough recipe for this pizza here.






  • Skillet, Deep pan, or Saucier

  • Blender or Hand Blender

DIRECTIONS

STEP 1: SAUCE
  • Add all sauce ingredients to a blender and blend until nearly smooth. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, covered.

STEP 2: STRETCH DOUGH
  • Add flour to a bowl and then dust your work surface with semolina flour.

  • Add your dough ball to the bowl to fully coat with flour, then dust off the excess.

  • Transfer your dough to the work surface and flatten the dough ball beginning in the center and working your way to the outer diameter.

  • Stretch out your dough until it’s about 1/8-inch thick.

STEP 3: BUILD
  • Add the sauce to the pizza dough and spread it out evenly leaving about 1-inch from the edge of the dough uncovered.

  • Top with mozzarella and ricotta cheese.

  • Drizzle a little pizza oil or olive oil on top.

  • Transfer the dough to a flour-dusted pizza peel.

STEP 4: COOK
  • Transfer the pizza to the pizza oven and bake.
