Pizzette with Prosciutto, Fresh Figs, Burrata & Balsamic Glaze

By Frank Occhino

Ingredients

  • 3 8 oz

    portions of homemade or store-bought pizza dough

  • 6 slices

    of prosciutto (divided)

  • 4

    fresh figs, cut into small wedges

  • 8 oz

    burrata cheese, divided into 3 portions

  • Olive oil & Balsamic glaze (for drizzling)

  • Your favorite Gratsi Wine (to enjoy alongside)

Instructions

TOTAL TIME

15 minutes

3 pizzette servings

STEP 1

Preheat oven and pizza stone: If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven and preheat your oven to its maximum temperature (usually around 500°F or 260°C). Allow the pizza stone to heat for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour before baking. This ensures a crispy crust.

A person stands near an outdoor pizza oven with a fire inside. A wooden table holds bruschetta, a glass of red wine, a basil plant, and a Gratis Red wine box. String lights and a stool are in the background.

STEP 2

Stretch the dough: Take each portion of dough (8 oz each) and stretch it into a roughly 6-inch circle for each pizzetta. Make sure the dough is evenly spread.

STEP 3

Oil the base: Drizzle olive oil on the bottom side of each stretched dough circle to ensure a crispy crust when baked.

A person pours olive oil onto a round piece of pizza dough on a wooden table. Another dough and kitchen items are visible in the background.

STEP 4

Add toppings: Lay half of the prosciutto slices(3 total) on top of the dough. Scatter fresh fig wedges evenly across the top of each pizzetta. Drizzle a little more olive oil over the top to add flavor and moisture.

A person’s hands arrange sliced figs and prosciutto on a round piece of uncooked pizza dough with dollops of cheese, on a floured wooden surface. Another prepared dough and a plate are nearby.

STEP 5

Bake: If you're using a pizza stone, carefully transfer the pizzettes on to the preheated stone. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the crust is fully cooked.

STEP 6

Finishing touches: Remove the pizzettes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Add the remaining fresh prosciuttoslices on top. Tear the burrata cheese into pieces and gently place it on top of the pizzettes. Drizzle balsamic glaze generouslyover the pizzettes for a tangy finish.

A person sprinkles chopped nuts onto a small pizza topped with prosciutto, cheese, and balsamic glaze. Nearby are a plate with figs, mozzarella, and prosciutto, a glass of red wine, and a basil plant in a tin pot.

Enjoy ! Serve your pizzettes immediately, paired with your favourite Gratsi Wine. Cheers!
