Homemade Cremini Mushroom Pizza sounds absolutely delicious! Cremini mushrooms have such a rich and earthy flavor that pairs wonderfully with the cheesy goodness of pizza. Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:
Ingredients:
- Pizza dough (you can make your own or use store-bought)
- Olive oil
- Garlic cloves, minced
- Cremini mushrooms, sliced
- Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- Parmesan cheese, grated
- Fresh thyme leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven: Preheat your oven to the temperature recommended for your pizza dough.
- Prepare the mushrooms: In a skillet, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the sliced cremini mushrooms and cook until they’re tender and golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- Prepare the pizza dough: Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Assemble the pizza: Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the dough. Spread the sautΓ©ed mushrooms evenly over the dough. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese. Scatter fresh thyme leaves on top.
- Bake the pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted, about 10-15 minutes.
- Serve: Once the pizza is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two. Slice it up and serve hot.
