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.

Potatoes are an all time favorite pizza topping for me. All forms of potatoes are welcome on my pies from roasted to mashed. For this pizza I’m channeling the flavors of a twice baked potato into pizza form. I keep the mash on the potatoes rustic and fortify them with plenty of creme fraiche to help them hold up during the bake in the pizza oven. With bacon and chives in the mix this pizza brings the classic twice baked potato flavors and makes for an absolutely delicious pizza. Comforting and satisfying with a flavor that keeps you reaching for another slice. This was one of my favorite pies in recent memories and I’m stoked to share it with all of you. I hope you enjoy. One Love!
