Ingredients

• 1 Summer Squash (aka zucchini or courgette) Sliced into thin coins on a mandoline. Salted and drained in colander for about 30 minutes.
• 1 cup Sungold Tomatoes Halved
• 100 g Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
• 1/4 cup Fresh Goat Cheese Crumbled.
• 1 clove Garlic Thinly sliced.
• 1 small Shallot Thinly sliced.
• 5-7 leaves Fresh Basil
• Olive Oil
• Sea Salt
• Balsamic Vinegar To finish.
• 1 dough ball Pizza Dough A naturally fermented (sourdough) recipe & guide. Easy yeasted thin & crispy pizza recipe. Using store bought dough? Check out my vid on How to Make Store Bought Dough Awesome!

Instructions

• Watch the video for the full how to!
• Preheat your Ooni Pizza Oven for at least 30 minutes, I like to heat the center of the oven deck to around 850f before loading this style of pizza.
• Begin building the pizza by topping the stretched dough with the fresh mozzarella and goat cheese. Next add the sliced garlic. Top generously with the summer squash. Add the sliced shallots, and basil. Top with the halved sungold tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Bake in your Ooni pizza oven till fully baked and nicely colored (I aim for a 3-4 minute bake for a more crispy bottom).
• Let the crust set on a wire rack for about a minute. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar)  Slice, serve immediately. I serve my pizza on this 14" Wooden Pizza Peel.

Notes

In the End of Summer Pizza Video I’m using the 14″ Pizza Peel from Ooni to load the pizzas and the turning peel from the GI Metal TriPizza Kit. I always let my pizzas rest for a short while to ensure the crust doesn’t get soggy, they kick it on this half sheet pan rack set. I use this pizza cutter. I serve my pizza on this 14″ Wooden Pizza Peel.
