Roasted Garlic Pizza – a simple delicious roasted garlic pizza recipe with heirloom tomatoes and fresh arugula!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package pizza dough mix (or other pre-made pizza dough or from-scratch recipe)
- [note the remaining ingredients are for 1 12″ pizza – if your dough recipe results in more than one pizza, multiply accordingly]
- 2 heads of garlic – roasted. When time to add to pizza, use small fork to pull out each clove.

Instructions

- When dough is ready for toppings, add roasted garlic cloves (use as much or as little as you want – I would recommend using 1 whole head of garlic, but it depends on how garlic-y you want it), mozzarella cheese (break off chunks from large ball and shallots.

- Recommended that toppings bake for approx. 6-7 minutes.
- Once baking is complete, broil pizza on high for approx. 3 minutes or until cheese starts to brown and tomatoes are sufficiently roasted.
- Remove from oven.
