Recipe instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- For the alfredo sauce.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Add the minced garlic and saute for a minute.
- Add in flour and stir until it is evenly incorporated with the butter making a loose paste.
- Add in the half and half cream. Bring to a simmer over low heat, whisking constantly until thickened. Do not allow the sauce to boil.
- Simmer for minute or so over low heat stirring continuously until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
- Mix in the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses stirring constantly to melt them evenly. Be sure to reserve the remaining mozzarella for the topping.
- Season with white pepper to taste.
- For the spinach topping.
- Squeeze as much of the water from the spinach as possible.
- Puree the pesto sauce and spinach together in a food processor until the pesto and spinach are combined. Scrape the sides and bottom of the food processor with a rubber spatula to ensure all the pesto is incorporated. The final product should be a paste that will hold a shape.
- Place the prepared pizza dough on a lightly oiled baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Spread the alfredo sauce evenly over the pizza dough.
- Spread the spinach/pesto mixture over the alfredo sauce.
- Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese.
- Bakefor 20 minutes or until crust is brown and cheese is bubbly.
